The United Nations secretary-general has called for an immediate ceasefire in Sudan’s Darfur region after a deadly drone attack on Friday killed more than 70 worshippers in el-Fasher, expressing “grave” alarm about the “rapidly deteriorating situation”.
“The fighting must stop now,” Antonio Guterres said in a statement issued by his spokesperson on Saturday, urging the warring parties to engage in dialogue and provide humanitarian corridors, with the brutal civil war wracking the nation in its third year.
