Sudan's military-led government has rejected a call by a UN fact-finding mission for the deployment of an international force to protect civilians from the country’s ongoing civil war. The UN mission reported that Sudan’s warring parties had committed "harrowing" human rights violations against civilians. The UN mission’s lead, Chande Othman, says given the failure of the warring parties to spare civilians, an independent and impartial force with a mandate to safeguard civilians must be deployed without delay. The head of the World Health Organization, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also called on the world to wake up and help Sudan out of the nightmare it is living through.
