The Darfur Bar Association appealed to the UN Secretary-General to alert the UN Security Council of the crimes committed in Sudan, urging swift action to address the country’s alarming crimes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a press statement yesterday, the association condemned the aerial bombardments<\/a> on South Darfur’s capital of Nyala, Central Darfur, and Khartoum, and called on the immediate cessation of the “futile and destructive” war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DBA also implored for more international attention, emphasising the need to prosecute perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recent attacks, resulting in numerous casualties and destruction, intensify the association’s call for an end to the senseless war, highlighting the grave injustice faced by innocent civilians caught in the crossfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No-fly zone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radio Dabanga reported yesterday<\/a> that Sudan\u2019s Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) sent an urgent appeal to the UN Security Council to impose a no-fly zone within the cities affected by the war, to limit the indiscriminate killing practiced by what it called \u2018the Islamist remnants of the Al Bashir regime\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Darfur rebel movement called on human rights and civil society organisations to count the losses and write reports in preparation for referring them to the International Criminal Court (ICC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement by JEM, they condemned the SAF bombing of Nyala last week on Friday, which it described as \u201ccowardly and immoral behaviour by the remnants of the genocidal regime, by targeting defenceless people in their own homes\u201d.<\/p>\n
