UN Reports 93000 Displaced Due to Escalating Violence in Suede A Governorate

The United Nations held a daily press briefing on July 21, 2025, addressing critical humanitarian crises in Syria, Sudan, and Ukraine. The meeting highlighted the urgent need for assistance and the ongoing challenges faced by displaced populations in these regions.

In Syria, over 93,000 individuals have been displaced due to escalating violence in the Suede A Governorate. Many are being sheltered by local communities and in reception centers, while essential services such as water and electricity have been severely disrupted. Humanitarian teams are working to assess needs and deliver aid, with a recent convoy from the Syrian Arab Red Crescent providing vital supplies to those affected.

In Sudan, the humanitarian situation is deteriorating, particularly with a surge in cholera cases reported in North Darfur. More than 1,300 confirmed cases were documented in just one week, highlighting the urgent need for increased medical resources and treatment facilities. Additionally, flooding in Eastern Sudan has displaced over 1,400 people, compounding the challenges faced by returning residents who lack access to clean water.

The briefing also touched on the situation in Ukraine, where recent attacks resulted in the deaths of at least 20 civilians and injuries to over 100 others, including children.

The UN emphasized the importance of protecting civilians and ensuring humanitarian access in all affected areas, urging all parties involved to facilitate the delivery of aid and support for those in need.
