Crises in Africa: How Europe is facing the next refugee drama!

Sudan, Afrika - The humanitarian crisis in Sudan reaches terrifying dimensions. According to reports from the International Rescue Committee, Sudan not only leads the list of humanitarian crises, but also lists the largest displacement crisis worldwide. The country is facing the impending collapse in 2025, while over 16,000 people have already died in the fights. The government under Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the paramilitary rapid support forces (RSF) brutally fight for power, while the population desperately strives for a better life. The emergency is additionally tightened by arms from abroad, as Amnesty International shows. Nevertheless, there is a lack of international attention for the suffering of local people, according to the Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council, Jan Egeland, who speaks of an "outrageous" failure of the world. Also nd-aktuell.de reported on the catastrophic location in the refugee camps and the escalating fights.

Austria helps on site

In order to counteract this extreme emergency, Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg has announced an immediate aid of 9.5 million euros from the foreign catastrophic fund. This is intended to defuse the acute humanitarian situation in Sudan and in the neighboring countries such as Egypt, Chad and South Sudan. Schallenberg emphasized the urgency and necessity not only to provide humanitarian aid, but also to tackle the causes of flight in order to prevent migration waves to prevent Europe. These funds are distributed via the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) and are determined for organizations such as the UN who work on the forefront to enable people to survive. In the past few months, the humanitarian conditions have been so catastrophic that reports from the camps from malnutrition and epidemics speak, which makes immediate intervention all the more important, as well as ots.at noted.

However, the situation remains critical, since stabilization in the region is still questionable. Even with international support, the humanitarian situation in Sudan and the adjacent states will be difficult to improve as long as the fights continue and do not stop the arms deliveries. The wave of violence and the lack of peace show that people there are more dependent on help than ever.
