Apocalyptic

Meanwhile in a neglected part of the world

More than 65,000 people have fled el-Fasher in Darfur after it was captured by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on October 26, according to the United Nations, but many others remain at risk inside the city.

“Sudan is absolutely an apocalyptic situation,” German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said at the Manama Dialogue in Bahrain on Saturday.

In Bahrain, British Foreign Minister Yvette Cooper said: “No amount of aid can resolve a crisis of this magnitude until the guns fall silent.”

“Mass executions, starvation and the devastating use of rape as a weapon of war, with women and children bearing the brunt of the largest humanitarian crisis in the 21st century,” Cooper added. “For too long, this terrible conflict has been neglected, while suffering has simply increased.”
