The devastating conflict in #Sudan is entering its third year, still as tragic. So much suffering, so many people displaced, some that I have met who hope to one day return home. But as #peace delays, this hope wanes. It is time for a turning point. unhcr.org/news/briefing-…
Grim news on 2nd anniversary of start of #SudanCrisis More civilians + aid workers killed. I join @KMHambrouck @CNkwetaSalami in condemning these attacks More than 1.1 million have fled to #SouthSudan and more arrive daily @UNHCRSouthSudan @Kikigbeho
2 years into the Sudan conflict, we continue to witness the tragic and senseless killing of aid workers and civilians. We condemn these attacks in the strongest terms. Aid workers and civilians are not targets and must be protected. #NotATarget
