Humanitarian crisis

Humanitarian coordinator of United Nation in Sudan alerted that the humanitarian crisis in Sudan is turning into a “full flown catastrophe” and that the risk of spillover into neighbouring countries was worrisome.

“It has been more than two weeks of devastating fighting in Sudan, a conflict that is turning Sudan’s humanitarian crisis into a full-blown catastrophe,” Abdou Dieng, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in the country, told a briefing of member states via video link.

The United Nation warns that Sudan is at a humanitarian “breaking point”. Fighting is underway in Khartoum.

Rival military forces violated ceasefire rules every time and accuse each other of the violation of new ceasefire. Their strife has entered a third week and bloodshed and clashes between the army and paramilitary is continued.

Earlier, External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar on Sunday said that nearly 2300 evacuee Indians have reached the country.
