According to Volker Perthes, the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Sudan, more than 1,800 people have been injured, and the death toll from the conflict in Sudan has surpassed 180.

Armed confrontations between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) broke out last week and have been raging on ever since.

UN evacuates staffers from Sudan amid fierce infighting

The United Nations will be evacuating part of its staff and their families from Sudan after clashes between the Sudanese Army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) claimed the lives of multiple civilians, UN Special Representative Volker Perthes told journalists on Monday.

"We will have to evacuate some of our staff, non-essential staff (and) relatives," Perthes, who heads the UN mission in Sudan, said.

The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urged the sides to commit to a ceasefire, expressing his disappointment that the UN-brokered ceasefire which aimed to provide safe humanitarian corridors was only "partially" honored on Sunday.
