I strongly condemn the escalating drone attacks in Sudan & I am appalled the catastrophic toll they are inflicting on civilians.
I call on all the parties to the conflict to spare civilians & critical civilian infrastructure & agree without delay to a cessation of hostilities as a first step towards ending this devastating conflict.
The United Nations stands ready to support any efforts to advance a sustainable political solution that reflects the aspirations of the Sudanese people.
