Over 3,000 Humanitarian Organizations Cease Operations in Sudan Amid Civil War

 

The Sudanese Humanitarian Aid Commission has on Friday, reported that over 3,000 humanitarian organizations have completely ceased operations since the outbreak of the current civil war in mid-April.

They include around 2,900 national organizations, 110 foreign organizations, and more than 10 UN humanitarian agencies and regional organizations.

The Commission, while detailing the staggering impact on aid efforts in the war-torn nation, underscored the grim consequences of the ongoing conflict on Sudan’s humanitarian landscape.

It noted that amidst the escalating risks, 85 percent of international aid workers have left Sudan.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a statement on Thursday, that social instability, poor communications network, staff shortages, and bureaucratic impediments have been affecting the delivery of aid in various parts of Sudan.

Since April 15, deadly clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces have plagued Khartoum and other areas, resulting in over 12,000 casualties and displacing 6.6 million people within and outside Sudan.
