To the international and regional community, to humanitarian and human rights organizations, to multilateral institutions, and to the free peoples of the world and all conscientious voices:
As the Sudanese crisis escalates into one of the gravest humanitarian disasters of the modern era, the Mashad Organization for Human Rights and Humanitarian Development launches this urgent appeal, calling for a coordinated and effective international response to save millions of civilians trapped under the fire of war, besieged in towns and villages suffering from relentless shelling, starvation, and the total absence of basic necessities for a dignified life.
The suffering of Sudanese civilians has reached an alarming level, marked by horrific violations that amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity, as defined by the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Stopping these violations and holding all perpetrators accountable—without exception or impunity—is a shared legal and moral responsibility of the international community.
The Mashad Organization emphasizes that lifting the siege on besieged areas—particularly those targeted by the Rapid Support Forces and allied militias—and ensuring the immediate and safe delivery of humanitarian aid is an urgent and non-negotiable priority. The organization also stresses the need to open safe and neutral humanitarian corridors, cease all military operations, protect civilian lives and infrastructure, and end all forms of indiscriminate killing, forced starvation, and systematic displacement.
The continuation of war in Sudan is not merely a domestic threat—it poses a looming danger of humanitarian and security collapse that could destabilize the entire region for decades to come. Ending this conflict has thus become a strategic and humanitarian imperative that demands a responsible and united international response.
In this context, the organization calls upon all states, governments, and international institutions to intensify efforts to end the war, and to support a just and comprehensive peace process that guarantees the dignity and rights of the Sudanese people. It also urges the imposition of the strongest political, diplomatic, and legal sanctions on those who finance the war, fuel hate speech, and provide any form of support enabling the continuation of violence and division.
The Mashad Organization appeals to the peoples of the world, to independent media outlets, journalists, human rights defenders, and activists everywhere, to take urgent action, to raise their voices in humanitarian solidarity with the Sudanese people, and to shed light on the escalating suffering of civilians—before Sudan slips into total collapse and its tragedy is buried in painful global silence.
We are not appealing for sympathy—we are calling on the world to assume its moral, humanitarian, and legal responsibilities, and to stand for the universal values of justice, dignity, and the right to life.
From its position on the ground, the Mashad Organization continues to document violations, support victims, and work in partnership with regional and international bodies to uphold justice and open windows of hope amid Sudan’s deep pain.
