The lingering situation in Sudan continues to occupy the attention of world leaders, particularly those of the United Nations and the African Union, who are eager to find a solution as quickly as possible.
The deputy secretary-general of the UN, Amina Mohammed, visited the African Union offices in Addis Abe on Tuesday to meet with Moussa Mahamat, the leader of the commission.
They are repeating calls for an immediate ceasefire.
According to Sudan’s Ministry of Health, so far, the clashes have killed more than 550 people and left over 4,900 others wounded.
Mrs. Mohammed confirmed that the UN is fully behind the African Unions’ proposal for opening of humanitarian corridors and offering of aid to people in need.
“We also naturally discussed political issues, particularly on the Sudan Crisis. The trilateral organizations, namely the United Nations, the African Union and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) have continued to work with the parties for advancing the ceasefire and opening the humanitarian corridors.”
