U.S. Leaders Call for Immediate End to Violence in Sudan Amidst Escalating Humanitarian Crisis

Washington D.C., — In a united call for peace and humanitarian relief, Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden have urged all parties involved in Sudan’s ongoing conflict to cease hostilities and allow humanitarian aid to reach those in need across the country.

The call comes as Sudan faces a severe humanitarian crisis, exacerbated by a relentless siege on El Fasher, Darfur, which has intensified over the past month. President Biden, in a recent statement, highlighted the dire situation, emphasizing that the conflict has now escalated to a full-scale assault on the city.

For over 17 months, the Sudanese people have endured a senseless war that has created one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises. Kidnapping, sexual assault, and famine have threatened millions – and now, the month-long siege on El Fasher, Darfur has become a full-on assault.

Vice President Harris echoed the administration’s stance, stressing the need for an immediate end to the violence. “President Biden and I call on all parties involved in Sudan’s tragic conflict to end the violence and allow humanitarian aid to reach every part of the country. We stand with the Sudanese people and their right to a peaceful future.”

The international community has been alarmed by the escalating violence, which has displaced millions and created a severe shortage of essential resources. Humanitarian organizations have struggled to provide aid due to ongoing hostilities, leading to increased suffering among the civilian population.

The Biden administration’s statements underscore the urgent need for a coordinated international response to address the crisis and support efforts aimed at restoring peace and stability in Sudan. As the situation continues to deteriorate, global leaders are calling for immediate action to protect innocent lives and ensure that humanitarian assistance can reach those who need it most.
