| 2023-04-30 | |
That's a suspiciously low corpse count, in my humble opinion.
On Saturday, the ministry released a statement on the human causalities of fighting from 15 to 27 April 2023, indicating that battles are mainly taking place in the states of Khartoum and West Darfur. " 528 people had been killed and 4,599 others injured according to the records of the hospitals in Sudan," said the Federal Health Ministry. The festivities have caused significant damage to hospitals and medical facilities, making it difficult to provide medical care to those in need. The statement also highlighted that the armed tribal conflict in West Darfur state resulted in the destruction of El Geneina’s main hospital and the Ministry of Health’s headquarters, causing a large number of uncounted deaths. In a statement on Friday, Human Right Watch called on the Human Rights Council to hold an emergency meeting and create a mechanism to collect and preserve evidence of grave violations, identify likely perpetrators, and make recommendations for accountability.
