It is their decision that is ravaging Sudan. And they can end it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perthes pointed out: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/heavy-shelling-in-sudan-capital-hours-before-onset-of-humanitarian-truce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fighting and troop movements have continued<\/a> even today despite the commitment of both sides not to pursue military advantage before the ceasefire takes effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBoth parties have been calling on me to condemn the respective other side\u2019s actions. I call on both to end the fighting and to return to dialogue in the interest of Sudan and its people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He pointed out that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/war-in-sudan-saf-and-rsf-sign-week-long-ceasefire-to-facilitate-humanitarian-response\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">short-term ceasefire<\/a> [referred to as the Jeddah Declaration] signed by both sides of the conflict, which came into force at 21:45 (Khartoum time GMT+2) last night \u201cshould allow civilians to move and humanitarian access to get to the people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>\u2018The warring parties have fought their war with little regard for the laws and norms of war\u2026\u2019 \u2013 Volker Perthes<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>On the human cost of the conflict thus far, Perthes says: \u201cMore than 860 civilians have been killed, including more than 190 children, with another 3,500 civilians injured. Many are missing. Over a million have been displaced: more than 840,000 have sought shelter in safer parts of the country, while another 250,000 or so have crossed Sudanese borders.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continued, \u201cI am grateful to those countries who are receiving refugees and returnees fleeing Sudan. It is vital that borders remain open to those who seek safety.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perthes laments: \u201cIn Khartoum, in Darfur, and elsewhere, the warring parties have fought their war with little regard for the laws and norms of war.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>\u2018A short-term ceasefire is not the goal; it is an instrument to go forward\u2019 \u2013 Volker Perthes<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Permanent Representative of Sudan to the United Nations, El Harith Idriss Mohamed, told the UNSC session said that the government of his country \u201cwill commit to the principles of the Jeddah Declaration with this agreement, while respecting international humanitarian law and human rights, and will provide the conditions to provide urgent assistance and access to humanitarian workers without impediments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/unitams.unmissions.org\/en\/near-verbatime-srsg-volker-perthes-stakeout-new-york\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Briefing reporters after the session<\/a>, the UNITAMS chief explained: \u201cA short-term ceasefire is not the goal; it is an instrument to go forward.
