The United Nations Security Council has passed a resolution on Friday calling for the protection of aid workers and UN personnel globally, particularly in conflict zones. This resolution comes amid escalating violence in Sudan, particularly in the Darfur region, where tens of thousands have fled their homes due to attacks by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The situation in Sudan's North Darfur capital, El Fasher, is growing increasingly dire, with reports of at least 47 people killed in recent clashes, including 30 civilians and 17 soldiers. Over 100 people have been killed in two weeks of fighting, and the humanitarian situation for approximately 800,000 civilians continues to deteriorate. The UN has strongly condemned all violence against aid workers and urged greater measures to ensure their safety and access to those in need.
