United Nations Emergency Relief Coordinator, Martin Griffiths, has said that the fires of war in Sudan threaten to engulf El Fasher.
Griffiths added in a tweet on his account on the “X” website that reports indicating an escalation in the intensity of clashes in the city of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, are deeply disturbing.
He stressed that the people of Darfur need more food, not more fighting, calling on the parties to the conflict to fulfill their obligations to preserve the safety of civilians and stop the escalation immediately.
