That said a spokeswoman Friday in Geneva. That could reignite ethnic tensions that have long existed in Sudan.
In West Darfur, fighting between rival forces, the Sudanese Army (SAF) and the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces (RSF), has already led to clashes between communities. At least 96 people have died there since April 24.
Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed in fighting in the west of the country over the past 20 years. The central government has brutally suppressed attempts at autonomy.
“Our biggest challenge is Darfur,” said the representative of the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) in Sudan, Axel Bisschof. New tensions threaten there. That is why people urgently need help. There are plenty of warehouses with supplies scattered around the country, but access is sometimes impossible due to the fighting. Some had been looted. According to UNHCR, prior to the recent tensions, UNHCR was already caring for 3.7 million internally displaced people in Sudan, most of them in 73 camps in Darfur.
