This resolution condemns all attacks on civilians in Sudan and recognizes their right to safety and security. (Since 2023, there has been an ongoing conflict in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. The warring parties have been implicated in war crimes and human rights abuses.) The resolution applauds international, national, and local humanitarian efforts to deliver lifesaving assistance and calls on the warring parties to ensure aid workers’ safety and grant unfettered access to populations in need of assistance. Lastly, the resolution calls on external actors to end material support to the Rapid Support Forces and Sudanese Armed Forces and calls on the international community to prioritize civilian efforts to end the war, assist with post-conflict reconstruction and recovery, and support the establishment of a transitional justice mechanism.
