In Sudan, humanitarian truce announced for aid

• RSF announced a three-month humanitarian truce.
• The war in Sudan has led to a humanitarian crisis affecting 21 million people.
• Foreign powers, such as the UAE, are influencing the conflict in Sudan.

On Thursday, November 7, 2025, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) recognized their readiness for a three-month humanitarian truce. This could possibly lead to an increase in violence in the country, which has been declared to be experiencing a significant humanitarian crisis.

Earlier this week, the RSF seized the town of El-Fasher, the last stronghold of the national army in the Darfur region. Following this, reports began to emerge of mass killings, including 460 fatalities in just one incident at a local clinic.

The humanitarian situation in Sudan remains critical. According to the UN, 21 million people, which constitutes 45% of the population, are facing high levels of food insecurity. Many people have become refugees or have been displaced within the country.

The forces supporting the RSF include foreign states, such as the United Arab Emirates, which are accused of supplying arms and financial support. These countries are attempting to strengthen their influence in the region, which complicates the situation in Sudan.

The need for humanitarian corridors for aid has become urgent. International organizations have called for the expansion of support for local initiatives that can quickly provide humanitarian assistance.

Observers note that without international pressure on both sides of the conflict, achieving a sustainable peace remains in question.
