The latter has been the de facto military ruler of Sudan since October 2021 when the two factions together toppled a civilian-led transitional government in a successful coup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In December 2022, the beginning of efforts to restore a democratic civilian government had been put in place with the signing of a peace agreement between the military and some key civilian political stakeholders. Today, the two factions are engaging in a brutal struggle for control of resources and power in Sudan, with an apparent disregard for their humanitarian responsibilities and the laws of war.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both forces have a long history of serious violations of international human rights and humanitarian law, notably including <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrw.org\/sites\/default\/files\/report_pdf\/sudan0915_insert_lowres_with_cover.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">brutal attacks on villages in the Darfur region in 2014 and 2015<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in campaigns led by the RSF and supported by the SAF and other government-backed militia groups.

Sudan\u2019s doctors\u2019 union reported that 16 hospitals have been bombed or shelled, while a further 19 have been forcibly evicted by the military, some of which have since been used for military operations. 70% of basic hospitals in the capital and states have closed, and those that remain open are experiencing severe shortages of specialised medical staff, oxygen supplies and blood bags.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, as well as the World Health Organisation and local doctors, warn that Sudan\u2019s entire health system is at risk of collapse.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within this context, reports from eyewitnesses illustrate <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2023\/may\/01\/medics-in-sudan-warn-of-crisis-as-health-system-near-collapse\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018piles of bodies\u2019 being left to decompose on the streets of Khartoum<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or dumped into rivers. Cases of severe disease have risen accordingly, as desperate people have resorted to drinking directly from the Nile due to a lack of water supply to the capital. So far, over 600 people have been reported dead by Sudan\u2019s Ministry of Health, and more than 5,000 wounded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Humanitarian crisis<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A displacement crisis is growing as over 330,000 people inside Sudan have been forced out of their hometowns and a further 100,000 or more refugees and returnees have fled Sudan to Egypt, Chad, Central African Republic, South Sudan and Ethiopia. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/news\/stories\/five-things-know-about-crisis-sudan\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The UNHCR estimates that this number could increase to 860,000 people<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2023\/04\/1136172\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Human rights abuses such as extortion, looting and assault have been rife<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for those on the move.

So far, Sudan\u2019s civilian pro-democracy forces, which have been progressively sidelined since the 2021 coup, have been excluded from such negotiations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>ACHRS stance<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ACHRS joins the UN and other international organisations in calling for an immediate end to the conflict and urgent restoration of humanitarian aid systems. The conflict in Sudan is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrw.org\/news\/2023\/04\/25\/questions-and-answers-sudan-and-laws-war\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">categorised under the 1949 Geneva Conventions as a \u2018non-international\u2019 armed conflict<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for which international humanitarian law prohibits violence against non-combatants.\u00a0 The warring parties must swiftly begin rectifying the crises that their violations of this law have generated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ACHRS also recognises that in practice this \u2018non-international\u2019 armed conflict has been fuelled by international non-state organisations who equally need to be held accountable. Notably, it is widely understood that Russia\u2019s Wagner Group has been undermining Sudan\u2019s transition to democracy by assisting both the RSF and SAF in escalating their military capacities, for their own lucrative gain in concessions and contracts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This situation, in which the Wagner Group and other Private Military Contractors (PMCs) seek to create dependent relationships with fragile military governments, in return for access to their natural resources, has been recurring dangerously in the MENA region and elsewhere.\u00a0 In recent years, Wagner Group contractors have been deployed in the region to Syria, Yemen, Libya and Sudan, where they have enabled the regimes of illegitimate military governments and at times their employees have been<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/syriaaccountability.org\/the-case-against-russias-wagner-group-and-what-it-means-for-syria\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> accused of human rights violations<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2021, the EU imposed sanctions on the Wagner Group accusing it of human rights abuses.\u00a0 The recent events in Sudan, however, illustrate the inadequacy of such travel bans and asset freezes in this context. ACHRS acknowledges the complexity of holding non-state actors accountable within current international legal systems. ACHRS calls for the global development of creative and new methods of bringing action against any and all parties responsible for human rights violations, to prevent the ongoing cultivation of crises such as that which we are witnessing in Sudan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 15 April fighting broke out in Sudan\u2019s capital, Khartoum, and has
