حَذَّرَتْ رُوزْمَارِي دِيكَارْلُو، وَكِيلَةُ الْأَمِينِ الْعَامِّ لِلْأُمَمِ الْمُتَّحِدَةِ، مِنْ تَزَايُدِ الْخَطَرِ عَلَى الْمَدَنِيِّينَ فِي السُّودَانِ. وَقَالَتْ فِي إِحَاطَةٍ لِمَجْلِسِ الْأَمْنِ يَوْمَ ١٦ أُكْتُوبَرَ إِنَّ الْقِتَالَ وَالْأَزْمَةَ الْإِنْسَانِيَّةَ مَا زَالَا يَتَفَاقَمَانِ.
وَأَشَارَتْ دِيكَارْلُو إِلَى اسْتِمْرَارِ الْقِتَالِ، خَاصَّةً فِي وِلَايَاتِ شَمَالِ كُرْدُفَانَ وَجَنُوبِ كُرْدُفَانَ وَالنِّيلِ الْأَزْرَقِ. وَأَضَافَتْ أَنَّ الطَّائِرَاتِ الْمُسَيَّرَةَ وَالْغَارَاتِ الْجَوِّيَّةَ تُعَرِّضُ الْمَدَنِيِّينَ لِلْخَطَرِ فِي أَنْحَاءٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ مِنَ الْبِلَادِ.
وَدَعَتِ الْمَسْؤُولَةُ الْأُمَمِيَّةُ أَطْرَافَ النِّزَاعِ إِلَى وَقْفِ اسْتِخْدَامِ الطَّائِرَاتِ الْمُسَيَّرَةِ، أَوِ الِاتِّفَاقِ عَلَى قَوَاعِدَ صَارِمَةٍ لِاسْتِخْدَامِهَا. وَقَالَتْ إِنَّ هَجَمَاتِهَا كَانَتْ سَبَبًا رَئِيسِيًّا لِسَقُوطِ ضَحَايَا مَدَنِيِّينَ هَذَا الْعَامَ. وَحَثَّتِ الْجِهَاتِ الْخَارِجِيَّةَ عَلَى اسْتِخْدَامِ نُفُوذِهَا لِإِنْهَاءِ الْحَرْبِ، لَا لِإِطَالَتِهَا.
وَأَكَّدَتْ دِيكَارْلُو أَنَّ الْأُمَمَ الْمُتَّحِدَةَ وَشُرَكَاءَهَا يَعْمَلُونَ مِنْ أَجْلِ هُدْنَةٍ إِنْسَانِيَّةٍ. وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ، قَالَتْ إِنَّ طَرَفَيِ النِّزَاعِ لَا يُظْهِرَانِ حَتَّى الْآنَ اسْتِعْدَادًا وَاضِحًا لِلْحِوَارِ. وَتَسْتَمِرُّ الْمُوَاجَهَاتُ فِي مَنَاطِقَ عِدَّةٍ، بَيْنَمَا تَتَّسِعُ آثَارُ الْحَرْبِ عَلَى الْمَدَنِيِّينَ وَالْخَدَمَاتِ الْأَسَاسِيَّةِ.

UN Calls for an End to Drone Attacks in Sudan
Rosemary DiCarlo, the UN under-secretary-general, warned that civilians in Sudan face increasing danger. In a Security Council briefing on October 16, she said the fighting and humanitarian crisis were continuing to worsen.
DiCarlo pointed to continued fighting, especially in North Kordofan, South Kordofan, and Blue Nile states. She added that drones and airstrikes put civilians at risk in different parts of the country.
The UN official urged the parties to the conflict to stop using drones or agree on strict rules for their use. She said drone attacks had been a leading cause of civilian casualties this year. She urged outside actors to use their influence to help end the war, not prolong it.
DiCarlo said the UN and its partners were working toward a humanitarian truce. However, she said the two sides had not yet shown a clear willingness to engage in dialogue. Fighting continues in several areas, while the war’s effects on civilians and essential services are spreading.
