Drone attacks on #ElObeid are disrupting electricity, water, fuel, and healthcare, putting women at growing risk. Up to 500,000 people could be forced to flee, including 11,900 pregnant women.
UNFPA is scaling up services, but urgent funding is needed.

In #Sudan, hundreds of thousands of women & girls have nowhere to turn.
Sustained investment in life-saving services, incl. GBV protection & reproductive healthcare is critical.
Grateful to #Canada for supporting women & girls and standing with those who need it most. #ForSudan

Le Canada demeure fermement engagé à soutenir le peuple soudanais, en particulier les femmes et les filles, qui supportent le poids le plus lourd de cette crise. La violence sexuelle est utilisée comme une arme de guerre. Les corps des femmes et des filles sont devenus un champ de bataille.

Le soutien supplémentaire du Canada à l’UNFPA renforce notre détermination à prévenir et à combattre la violence sexuelle et fondée sur le genre, à appuyer les efforts de protection locaux et dirigés par des femmes, et à garantir aux survivantes un accès à des soins vitaux.

Ce partenariat repose sur notre humanité commune et sur la conviction que chaque personne mérite de vivre dans la sécurité et la dignité.

Canada remains firmly committed to supporting the people of Sudan, especially women and girls, who are bearing the brunt of this crisis. Sexual violence is being used as a weapon of war. The bodies of women and girls have become a battleground.

Canada’s additional support to UNFPA reinforces our determination to prevent and respond to sexual and gender-based violence, strengthen local and women-led protection efforts, and ensure survivors can access life-saving care.

This partnership is grounded in our shared humanity and the conviction that every person deserves to live in safety and dignity.

We visited Al-Jabalain Hospital today. The destruction is devastating.
Once a lifeline for hundreds of thousands, it can no longer provide care. Women have lost access to safe childbirth services.
Health facilities must never be a target.

Women & girls in #Sudan have faced horrific violence for three years. With many men killed or missing, millions of women now head households, struggling to survive. Nearly 9 million people are displaced, and life-saving care is out of reach. Sudan needs aid and peace.

In 3 years of war in #Sudan, 214 attacks on health care have killed 2,042 people & injured 785.
Yet medical teams stayed saving lives under fire. Maternity hospitals became the last refuge for women & girls, w/ births taking place amid shelling & gunfire.
