UN warns of efforts to hide Sudan war evidence
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights warned of an "obliteration of evidence" regarding violations in the Sudan war, amid worsening conditions and warnings of expanding fighting and the targeting of civilians and vital infrastructure. She emphasized that the loss of communication and security concerns hinder access to sites of violations, calling on the international community to hold perpetrators accountable and facilitate investigators' access to conflict zones, especially concerning the use of banned weapons. During the 63rd session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva, discussions took place about the escalating attacks on civilians, with cautions about the intensification of the war, calls for an immediate ceasefire, and a return to civilian rule. Additionally, a UN team is investigating the destruction of a food aid convoy, which was reportedly targeted by an air strike believed to have been carried out by the Sudanese army, despite indications that the convoy bore clear banners and prior warning signals.
