UNICEF expresses grave concern over escalating violence in Al Fasher, Darfur region of Sudan, affecting thousands of children already facing hardships for more than 500 days. The situation includes shelling, fighting, and shortages of food, water, and medicine. Catherine Russell, UNICEF Executive Director, stated that no child is safe amid reports of abduction, killing, maiming, sexual violence, and detention or killing of humanitarian workers. With communications blackouts complicating the assessment, an estimated 130,000 children are at high risk. UNICEF calls for a ceasefire, protection of civilians, especially children, unimpeded humanitarian access, and safe passage for refugees in accordance with international law.
