targeted attacks on the civilian population and the blocking of humanitarian aid may be a war crime. This was said by the UN Secretary General Antoniu Gutherresh, commenting on the situation around the Sudanese region El Fashir.
UN Secretary General expressed security in connection with the use of heavy weapons in densely populated areas.
Guterrish noted that the use of this type of weapons costs dozens of civilians, causes forced migration of the population and causes damage to civilian infrastructure.
