UN representative to Sudan, Volker Perthes, steps down - War in Sudan - War in Sudan
Ahram OnlineSep 13, 2023
The atrocities in Darfur show that the conflict between the Sudanese military and the RSF is on the verge of full escalation. While neither side appears close to a decisive military victory, the conflict could now escalate into a full-blown civil war. Both sides are guilty of crimes against civilians and must be held accountable.
Twenty years after Darfur dominated the headlines, the RSF is perpetrating systematic genocide and exploiting the chaos to continue the ethnic cleansing of Darfur from the African tribes. The international community must exhaust all means to end the atrocities.
There's a 50% chance that at least 10K people will die in the Sudan conflict in 2023, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
