GENEVA, June 20, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - The United Nations' rights chief Volker 
Turk said on Friday that escalating fighting in Sudan's west and centre risks 
aggravating harm to civilians and abuses, more than two years into the 
country's war.

Turk in a statement warned of "the disastrous consequences stemming from 
ongoing and escalating hostilities" in North Darfur and Kordofan states, 
"amid a pervasive culture of impunity for human rights violations".
