He said that the attack has caused heavy damage to private and public properties. He described the attack as a brutal act against humanity and said that it is a gross violation of international humanitarian law.
The conflict has been going on for almost two years
The conflict has been going on in Sudan for almost two years. The conflict began in April 2023, when tensions between the army and RSF leaders turned into a fight, in which thousands of people lost their lives. In the last two years, more than 28 thousand people have been killed in Sudan, while millions of people have become destitute.
People are surviving by eating grass
The conflict in Sudan has also created serious problems like starvation and famine in the country. In some areas, people have been forced to eat grass to survive. According to the United Nations and human rights organisations, ethnic killings, rapes and grave atrocities are being committed in this war. The International Criminal Court has also started investigating war crimes and crimes against humanity.
