UNAMID denounces ongoing clashes in Dar al-Salaam, South Darfur
UNAMID calls on all parties to cease hostilities, which not only endanger the lives of innocent civilians but also further jeopardize the peace process.
UNAMID also urges both government forces and rebel movements to ensure safe access for humanitarian groups to displaced persons in Khor Abeche, Shangil Tobaya and Shaeria, where thousands have fled to the Mission’s team sites after fighting last week.
