Maggio 2023 «Sudan:
l'UE lancia un ponte aereo umanitario per fornire beni di prima necessità» 10
Maggio 2023 «Alla luce delle crescenti esigenze
umanitarie dovute al conflitto dilagante in Sudan, l'UE ha lanciato un ponte
aereo umanitario per trasportare forniture essenziali da consegnare ai nostri
partner impegnati in operazioni umanitarie a Port Sudan. Le 30 tonnellate di
articoli essenziali (provviste idriche, servizi igienico-sanitari,
attrezzature di accoglienza ecc.), sono state trasportate dai magazzini delle
Nazioni Unite a Dubai a Port Sudan. Al loro arrivo, i beni sono stati
consegnati all'UNICEF e al Programma alimentare mondiale. Il ponte aereo umanitario
è organizzato nel quadro della Capacità europea di risposta umanitaria, uno
strumento concepito per colmare le lacune in termini di risposta umanitaria
ai rischi naturali e alle catastrofi provocate dall'uomo. L'UE ha già stanziato 200.000 €
per il soccorso immediato e l'assistenza di primo soccorso alle popolazioni
ferite o esposte a rischi elevati nella capitale, Khartoum, e in altre zone
colpite dalle violenze in corso. Inoltre lfUE sostiene la società della
Mezzaluna Rossa sudanese nella fornitura dei primi soccorsi, di servizi di
evacuazione e di sostegno psicosociale. Questi finanziamenti si aggiungono ai
73 milioni di € già assegnati al Sudan nel 2023 per l'assistenza umanitaria,
mentre ulteriori 200.000 € sono stati assegnati alla Mezzaluna rossa
egiziana per fornire sostegno ai rifugiati che arrivano in Egitto dal Sudan.» || Il

- Brussels Press release - 10 May 2023 «Sudan: EU launches Humanitarian Air Bridge
to provide essential supplies» 10 May 2023 «In view of the rising
humanitarian needs due to the raging conflict in Sudan, the EU launched a
Humanitarian Air Bridge transporting critical supplies to our humanitarian
partners in Port Sudan. The 30 tonnes of essential
items, including water, sanitation and hygiene as well as shelter equipment
were transported from the warehouses of the United Nations in Dubai to Port
Sudan. Upon arrival, they were handed over to UNICEF and the World Food
Programme. The Humanitarian Air
Bridge is organised in the framework of the
European Humanitarian Response Capacity, a tool designed to fill gaps in the
humanitarian response to natural hazards and human-induced disasters. The EU has already allocated
€200,000 for the immediate relief and first aid assistance to populations
injured or exposed to high risk in the capital, Khartoum, and other areas
affected by the ongoing violence. It supports the Sudanese Red Crescent
Society in the provision of first aid, evacuation services, and psychosocial
support. This funding is on top of the €73 million already allocated to Sudan
in 2023 in humanitarian assistance. In addition, €200,000 were allocated to
the Egyptian Red Crescent, for the provision of support to refugees arriving
in Egypt from Sudan. Background Violent armed clashes
broke out in Sudan on 15 April between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the
Rapid Support Forces. This development comes following a prolonged political
gridlock after the 2021 military coup. Prior to the outbreak of violence, the
political, security and economic instability, combined with a poor harvest,
led to the worst humanitarian crisis in a decade. The EU had stepped up its
humanitarian aid to support the most vulnerable. According to the latest
reports by the country's Ministry of Health, as of 5 May, at least 550 people
have been killed – including 18 health and humanitarian workers – and more
than 5,000 injured. The actual toll is expected to be much higher. The EU has strongly urged
all parties for a full compliance with international humanitarian law,
including protection of civilians and humanitarian space. Safety and security
of aid workers, premises and assets must be guaranteed so that they can
provide emergency assistance to those affected.» For more

Response Capacity Quote(s) «I strongly condemn the
fighting in Sudan and call on both parties to enable medical staff &
humanitarian aid workers provide life-saving assistance. In the light of
growing humanitarian needs, we are launching a Humanitarian Air Bridge,
delivering essential supplies to our humanitarian partners on the ground – to
be further distributed to those who need them the most. I take this
opportunity to call, once again, for an end to the fighting and to the loss
of life.» Janez Lenarčič,
