Amnesty International has issued a plea to both sides involved in Sudan’s conflict to put an end to war crimes. The organization has documented numerous instances of civilians losing their lives due to deliberate and indiscriminate attacks.
In its investigations, Amnesty International conducted interviews with many individuals, primarily those who had sought refuge in camps in Chad after fleeing from the Darfur region. Shockingly, the report reveals that women and girls, some as young as 12 years old, have been victims of sexual violence, including rape.
According to the findings, the perpetrators in most cases were fighters from the Rapid Support Forces and allied Arab militias.
Adding to the dire situation, UN agencies and NGOs have raised concerns about the critical shortage of food in Sudan. They predict that over 20 million people, which accounts for more than 40% of the population, will face acute food shortages.
The situation in Sudan remains highly concerning, with both human rights violations and food insecurity posing significant challenges for the country and its people.
