An Iraqi citizen was killed in Sudan on Sunday amid the fighting there, according to Iraq's state news agency, which cited a foreign ministry spokesperson.

Sudan's sudden slide into conflict between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has stranded thousands of foreigners, including diplomats and aid workers, and countries are working to evacuate their nationals.

More than 420 people, including 264 civilians, have been killed and more than 3,700 have been wounded in the fighting.

The conflict has left millions sheltering in their homes from explosions, gunfire and looting without adequate electricity, food or water.

The foreign ministers of Germany, France and Britain jointly called on Israel to adhere to international law by allowing the unhindered passage of humanitarian aid into Gaza, in a statement released on Wednesday.

"Humanitarian aid must never be used as a political tool and Palestinian territory must not be reduced nor subjected to any demographic change," the ministers said.

They urged all parties to return to a ceasefire and called on Hamas to immediately release the remaining hostages.

Since the beginning of March, Israel sealed Gaza’s 2 million Palestinians off from all imports, including food, medical supplies and fuel. Israeli officials say the aim is to pressure Hamas to release more hostages after Israel ended their ceasefire.
