🤒 Patients 👩🏽⚕️ 👨🏽⚕️ Healthcare workers 🏥 Hospitals 🚑 Ambulances All must be protected under international humanitarian law (IHL). Even wars have limits.
“More is needed to help people to get back on their feet.” Says @SarahEpprecht, @ICRC’s protection and essential services Director. The Director visited conflict-affected areas in #Tigray region. Watch 👇
"The year of war was one of the most difficult years that I lived as a citizen and a volunteer in #Sudan." Wajdan Hassan Ahmed, a volunteer nurse with the Sudanese Red Crescent, describes the Sudan conflict's impact on millions of people. 👇
One year since the outbreak of the conflict in #Sudan, our head of delegation confirms the ICRC commitment to protect and assist those affected by the conflict, emphasizing respect of IHL and need for humanitarian access.
Sudan has been in the grip of a devastating conflict for one year. We've interviewed @PYoussefICRC, the regional director for Africa at the @ICRC about the humanitarian needs of one of the world’s worst crises. 👇 @ICRC_Africa buff.ly/49IT6pC
Around 70% of Sudan's population depends on agriculture and livestock for their livelihoods, but the conflict has severely disrupted access to land. To help affected communities, the ICRC regularly distributes food and non-food aid in various parts of the country.
“This is the most painful thing for me and this pain increases…” Antasar shared with us. One year into the conflict in #Sudan, the situation has produced several humanitarian consequences for the Sudanese but also, for the neighboring countries. See how we are helping. 👇
Wajdan Hassan Ahmed has been a volunteer nurse with @SRCS_SD for 15 years As she held Yasmine, a little girl who fled Khartoum with her mother when the conflict broke out, Wajdan told us about the terrible situation facing millions of people in Sudan 📽️ ms.spr.ly/6010YBwjj
In armed conflicts and violence, even being safe from physical danger does not mean being completely out of harm. The difficult events seen and lived through can leave psychological scars for years to come, requiring psychosocial support.
One year into the conflict, millions of people in #Sudan are struggling to get access to: · Safety · Food · Agricultural lands · Water · Healthcare · Information and news about their loved ones · Humanitarian aid Here are 5 things to know about their situation:
“The year of war was one of the most difficult years that I lived as a citizen and a volunteer in #Sudan ". Wajdan Hassan Ahmed, a volunteer nurse with the Sudanese Red Crescent told us about her work and what millions of people are going through because of the conflict.
"My nephews, my aunts and more than 15 or 16 family members are missing and we know nothing about them." Antasar Jouma Adam lives in Sudan and, like millions of people, she and her family are paying a heavy price for the conflict.
Sudan today 1 year of conflict 8.5 million of people displaced 70% of healthcare facilities no longer functioning The conflict has changed Antasar and Wajdan's lives forever. Visit our newsroom to find out more: 🎥 ms.spr.ly/6012cAnqA
For Marina and her family, Sudan was a safe haven when they fled South Sudan years ago as their country was ravaged by conflict. A few weeks ago, driven by fear, they had no choice but to flee in the opposite direction. In 1 year, more than 8 million ppl have fled their homes.

Sudan's year-long conflict triggered widespread humanitarian needs, affecting millions and causing suffering. Psychological pain is evident as missing loved ones' absence intensifies during Eid. Footage in our newsroom 👉 ms.spr.ly/6010cfbrg
"A year ago, I prepared for Ramadan and broke the fast with a family member every day". Today, more than 15 of Antasar's relatives are missing. This is the grim reality for millions of Sudanese as #Eid2024 celebrations begin. Footage in our newsroom: icrcnewsroom.org/story/en/2085/…
