London Rally Demands Action Against Alleged Chemical Attacks in Sudan

Foreign Policy Blogs - Fri, 23/05/2025 - 20:00

A huge rally in solidarity with the Sudanese people victims of chemical weapons and calling for
peace in Sudan was organized on May 18th in front of the UK parliament in London . The
demonstration gathered more than 100 people from different EU and UK organizations as well
as a coalition of Sudanese human rights organizations under the “Sudanese peace forum”
including Safe steps and Sudanese women for peace as well as and the Peace and Democratic
Transition Organization to call for an immediate action to stop war in Sudan and prosecute the
Sudanese army for human rights violations.

Representatives from EU human rights organizations invited the international community to stand up for the rights of the Sudanese people and stop the war as well as end the suffering of civilians mainly women and children. Film director and human rights activist Deborah Paul highlighted that” Caught in the crossfire are millions of innocent civilians—and tragically, women and children have become
deliberate targets. Rape is being used not only as an act of violence, but as a weapon of
war. Girls as young as one. Boys. Mothers, grandmothers, daughters. Sisters, friends.
Entire communities torn apart” she also added the need to act now and demand
accountability. We must amplify the courage of survivors. We must support the frontline
organizations offering medical care, trauma healing, and protection. And we must name
this for what it is: a crime against humanity”

Aye Soe Kari, president of international Burmese students ,youth activist and human
rights defender pointed out that “Sudan is now the crisis of the world’s worst hunger crisis,
a crisis that barely makes global headlines. More than 26 million people, over half the country, face food insecurity. That means children crying from hunger with nothing to eat. That means mothers skipping meals for days just so their babies can survive a little longer. In some areas, families are eating
leaves from trees. In others, people are boiling water with rocks, pretending it’s soup to
comfort their starving children.

In the camps, there’s no milk, no bread, no fruit. People line up for hours in the heat for a
bowl of porridge, and often there’s not enough to go around. Children have swollen bellies
and thinning hair, classic signs of starvation. Some families have been forced to eat the
seeds they were saving for the next planting season, knowing full well it means they might
not be able to grow food next year.

And while people starve, aid trucks and international help gets blocked by violence. Farmers
have fled their land. Markets have been bombed. Food prices have skyrocketed. And
what little help is available often doesn’t reach those who need it most”
ABDELRAHIM GREIN Adam ,the head of the Peace and Democratic Transition
Organization addressed an urgent call to the international community to stand with the
Sudanese population victim of chemical weapons.

He added that “The Sudanese army is no longer a national army. It is a criminal militia hijacked by radical
Islamists, and partnered with extremist groups like Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and the remnants of
the Muslim Brotherhood. These are not accusations. They are facts — documented by survivors, field reports, and the smoldering ruins of our cities. Chemical Weapons are used against children, families, hospitals, and markets. Invisible death, seeping into homes and lungs, leaving entire communities”

Mohammed Momin, a communication officer at Safesteps organization pointed out that
“The most notable violations against the use of chemical weapons in the army of Abdel
Fattah al-Burhan in the capital. This brutal use of the Armed Forces causes a general
population and the attention of organizations to defend human beings from the necessity
of causing all urgency.

Mrs Fathia Elbushary ,president of Sudanese women of Peace called international
community to stand with Sudanese Women and children as well as the vulnerable
communities victims of violence , famine and displacement .

The use of chemical weapons, violence against women and children, and discrimination against
ethnic and religious minorities—primarily the Christian minority—by Armed Sudanese forces
were denounced by all participants, human rights organizations, journalists, and academics.
They also called for immediate action to end the war and to promote peace and dialogue
between the various ethnic, religious, and political groups in order to end one of the worst
humanitarian crises in history, which has resulted in the death of more than 150,000 people
and the displacement of more than 14 million people and causing the famine of almost 25
million people.
