That's horrible but what can anyone do to stop the SAF-RSF war?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


She was speaking as El Fasher, the capital of the North Darfur region and a former humanitarian hub, faced its second month under siege by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

The UN security council adopted a UK-drafted resolution on Thursday, demanding an end to the El Fasher siege, but the fighting escalated on Friday with the SAF claiming to have repelled a major RSF assault, inflicting “huge losses”.

“The RSF has been systematically looting humanitarian warehouses, stealing food and livestock, destroying grain storage facilities, and wells in the most vulnerable Sudanese communities,” Power said.

“We’ve seen mortality projections estimating that in excess of 2.5 million people, about 15% of the population in Darfur and Kordofan – the hardest hit regions – could die by the end of September,” the ambassador said.

While humanitarian aid has faced constant obstruction, both sides in the war continue to receive weapons, the US officials said: the SAF from Russia and Iran among others, the RSF in particular from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), a US ally.

However, a White House account of a “pull aside” meeting between Joe Biden and the UAE’s sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan at the G7 summit in Italy did not mention Sudan.


The original article contains 818 words, the summary contains 204 words. Saved 75%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
