UN chief: Call for Sudan protection mission now

To the UN Secretary General António Guterres and members of the Security Council :

Two decades after the Darfur genocide, we can’t abandon survivors to face more horrors and death. We call on you to do everything in your power to send an urgent international protection presence to Sudan, to respond to their plight and save lives.

UN chief: Call for Sudan protection mission now

In the heart of Darfur, survivors of the 2003 genocide are starving and holding their breath in humanitarian camps, waiting for death to strike again – and the world is looking away.

The genocidal militia that haunts their nightmares is back to finish the job, and has left a trail of blood, ashes and tears in its wake. Their horrifying script is always the same: they line up men and boys to execute them, before gang-raping women and girls.

The international community has been shamefully paralysed in the face of this unspeakable horror. Now one man’s decision will be pivotal for the protection mission Sudanese people urgently need.

The UN Secretary-General is about to present his recommendations to protect civilians in Sudan to the Security Council – and Antonio Guterres is under pressure to leave the most decisive options out. Global support can help him stare down big powers, but we only have days before he finalises his report. Add your name and ask your friends to sign now, so we can bring the biggest petition possible straight to his desk.
