The United States condemned the “brutal attack” on Al-Jabalain Hospital in White Nile State last week.
Massad Boulos, Senior Advisor to the U.S. President for Arab and African Affairs, said in a post on his account on the X platform: “The United States strongly condemns the brutal attack recently carried out by the Rapid Support Forces on Al-Jabalain Hospital in White Nile State,” which resulted in the killing of at least ten people, including seven medical personnel, and forced the evacuation of patients under dangerous conditions.
Boulos affirmed that targeting healthcare facilities constitutes a blatant violation of international law and an affront to the most basic principles of humanity, noting that such attacks are escalating and must stop.
He added that the United States reiterates the urgent need for an immediate cessation of violence by both sides against civilians and vital infrastructure, and to agree on a humanitarian truce now, as there is no room for further delay amid the continued suffering of the Sudanese people.
