In the ongoing clashes in Sudan between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), 300 children, including babies, have been evacuated from Khartoum and provided with protection. International organizations responded to the deaths of 71 children from hunger and disease in the conflict since April 15. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) reported that the children, aged between 1 month and 15 years, were transported to nursing homes in Wad Madani, accompanied by 70 caregivers. The ICRC emphasized the challenging conditions faced by the children during the conflict, including limited healthcare and essential services.

Since the conflict’s inception, clashes have resulted in 860 civilian casualties, including 190 children, while 71 children in the Al-Mayqoma orphanage in Khartoum have succumbed to hunger, thirst, and disease.

Srebrenica Genocide Victims Laid to Rest on 30th Anniversary

Seven newly identified victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide were buried at the Potocari Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the 30th anniversary of the massacre. The genocide, recognized by international courts, claimed over 8,300 Muslim lives during the Bosnian War.

The ceremony drew leaders and officials from across the region and Europe, including Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and French and NATO representatives.

Bosnian official Denis Bećirović emphasized the years of propaganda and planning that led to the genocide, while French President Emmanuel Macron warned that denialism has no place in EU-aspiring nations. NATO’s Mark Rutte called it a lasting tragedy linking the Netherlands and Bosnia.

Sirens marked the remembrance across cities, and symbolic tributes—including a silent jump from Mostar Bridge and the release of lilies—honored the victims. The newly buried include victims aged between 17 and 67.
