John,
One year ago today, violence broke out in Sudan’s capital city.
Nagi’s* mom was at the market when it happened, miles away from her children. Rana* rushed back home on foot, where her family packed essentials and eventually fled.
Like 8.2 million others, they’re still displaced – haunted by memories of burning tanks and late-night explosions. “[The kids] were psychologically affected,” Rana says. “Whenever I see them spacing out, I try to distract them. I do not allow it to take over.”
I know you agree, John: No child should ever witness the horrors of war. Please, call on Congress and the White House to protect Sudan’s kids and push for peace. [[link removed]]
The situation there has spiraled, with hostilities spreading across the country. 4.9 million people are facing emergency food insecurity – but in conflict-affected areas, more than 70% of health facilities aren’t functioning.
Risks of avoidable death are rapidly increasing as humanitarian workers struggle to reach the most vulnerable. It’s a truly unimaginable tragedy, John.
This fighting has to stop. Urge your lawmakers to press for an immediate ceasefire – and ensure kids like Nagi* can access lifesaving support. [[link removed]]
Thanks for being a voice for kids,
