Shocking reports are emerging from El Fasher, Darfur, where indiscriminate RSF attacks have killed civilians, including aid workers.
This gives added urgency to Tuesday's Sudan Conference in London with international partners.
All sides must commit to protection of civilians.
Lovely to catch up with 🇰🇪High Commissioner HE Catherine Keremu Wahome and her team @KenymissionUK. Constructive conversations on trade & investment, science & technology, climate and people to people. Looking forward to delivering our priorities together.

This evening, I met with Ms. Harriet Matthews, Director General for Africa at the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, and Mr. Richard Crowder, the UK Special Envoy to Sudan, along with their delegation.
During our discussion, we addressed the UK’s interest in the situation in Sudan and its commitment to consulting with the Sudanese government on various related matters.
We hope that these constructive meetings will continue to strengthen mutual understanding on key issues of shared concern.

In the face of escalating violence around El Fasher in Sudan, all sides must commit to protecting civilians. People that cannot move - such as those in ZamZam - must be protected, with a particular focus on women and children. Sudan has already suffered far too much.
