As Sudan’s civil war approaches its third year, United Nations Resident Coordinator Denise Brown has condemned the international community’s failure to intervene in a relentless cycle of violence.

Speaking at a press conference, Brown highlighted the catastrophic scale of the conflict between the national army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which has triggered the world’s most severe hunger and displacement crises, affecting over 11 million people.

The UN official expressed profound frustration over the repetitive nature of the atrocities, citing constant reports of sexual violence, mass displacement, and death.

She specifically pointed to the devastating assault on El-Fasher last year, where an estimated 6,000 people were killed in just three days.

She raised urgent alarms regarding current daily attacks by the RSF on the town of Dilling, where aid convoys are currently blocked.

Beyond the physical violence, the humanitarian response is facing a critical breaking point due to a severe lack of funding.

Brown revealed that the UN’s $2.9 billion appeal for Sudan is currently only 16% funded, as international contributions continue to dwindle.

She questioned why the global community remains largely unmoved by the ongoing slaughter and “repeat of atrocities” that continue to define the Sudanese conflict.
