The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) expressed deep concern over the recent developments in Sudan and strongly condemned the serious humanitarian violations committed during the attacks launched by the Rapid Support Forces on the city of El Fasher.
The OIC called for strict adherence to international humanitarian law, ensuring the protection of civilians, and facilitating the unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to those in need, SPA reported.
It also stressed the importance of respecting the provisions of the Jeddah Declaration of Commitment to Protect the Civilians of Sudan, signed on May 11, 2023.
In this regard, the general secretariat renewed its appeal for the importance of dialogue to achieve an urgent humanitarian truce as a prelude to a comprehensive and lasting ceasefire, which would help protect civilian lives, alleviate the suffering of the Sudanese people, and preserve the unity, sovereignty, security, stability, and territorial integrity of Sudan.
