NGOs argue UNSC’s renewal of Sudan sanctions falls short of expectations • FRANCE 24 English

The United Nations Security Council has taken a step to address the ongoing crisis in Sudan by renewing sanctions on the country. These sanctions are in response to the devastating toll that 18 months of war have taken on civilians, with reports of violations, abuse, and possible war crimes continuing to emerge.

While the renewal of sanctions is a positive step towards holding Sudan accountable for its actions, some rights activists are expressing concern that the measures do not go far enough. Despite the sanctions, violations and abuse against civilians are still ongoing, highlighting the need for more comprehensive measures to address the situation in Sudan.

The renewal of sanctions on Sudan comes at a critical time as the country struggles to achieve stability and protect its citizens from the impacts of conflict. It is crucial that the international community continues to monitor the situation in Sudan and take action to ensure the protection of civilians and accountability for human rights violations.
