The EU has warned that Sudan is facing a “catastrophic” humanitarian crisis, urging for unhindered access to aid and an immediate ceasefire amid widespread hunger and disease. EU Commissioner Hadja Lahbib highlighted the shocking violence in Darfur and Kordofan, noting thousands have been killed by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which continues to block humanitarian assistance. Since the conflict’s onset in April 2023, over 120 aid workers have died, and 21 million people now face acute food insecurity. The EU and African Union condemned the RSF’s actions and called for an end to the conflict, which has resulted in immense suffering and displacement.
