ad this moga from the vicinity of the airports. that's because a there was heavy shelling that had a fuel depot. many people around the area, many people in the residential areas around the airport saying that they have seen that as well. and that this is making them worried that this fighting will go on for more $44.00 more days or less bringing. ha, ha, ha ha, who's a researcher and policy officer that are here institute for middle east policy. he joins us live via skype form hub so many thanks for joining us on shore. this is an extremely challenging time for you and many others. they're in hard to him. can you tell us what the situation is now where you are and how well you are able to assess what's going on thank you so much for having. i mean, for tom currently. and that's just for me to know and that you need to access what's happening because it's obviously made it difficult to move it around to the can you see things at bio? so how,

from metro assessments from information that you guys in from 10 am in the city but also from the house that we keep on hitting for a couple of hours after we entered the fed as you fire the face to the most hold on this one i think we have noticed the 10s of i'd be in the noise is pi i meant i could be in the discontinue into many is typically a central to the airport and be army headquarters where they're both being is centralized. mostly, i continued without any fees, after that, i didn't give it appears to have not been any less up in the violence. i suppose you haven't seen much evidence of people being able to flee carts able to leave the

city when i have we, i, we get the sometimes need to need about how soon to go to a nearby to get looked at because we have not worked in the pipelines i've been cars for the past in the pipes have been cut for the fluid bays as we need to go out and get that in addition to food supplies. and so, and i would have been seeing a lot of vehicles with, with people and some luggage out of the country. i said if need to, but also people on foot people just getting some lilian and walking and trying to find a way to transport city. we have seen also videos, photos, and news of so many families who are too many of them met, history need safety but along with. c you know, or even as they would try to pay the price,

so leaving the city is perilous as well. but where are people going given that there are now multiple pockets of fighting in different parts of the country? people are trying to get to a neighboring states as to how to do it. even i states where these 2 states, anything me say for them to me and there isn't as much as i think going on as a movement obviously. oh, the fighting is centralized now. at our location, i like we mentioned as the military courses and locations where the support forces. i mean the g location we've been to that for it also seems. 6 a lot of a violence database, but people yeah. trying to get in a bidding state that anything for them at the moment. right. and we're hearing very tentatively, i have to say that turkey is playing a role in potentially brokering

a cease fire. we've heard comments from maryland to have a silly, the turkish foreign minister who suggested that thursday may bring with it a possible c spot. are you hearing anything more about that? not really only that in addition to so many of the you know, addition that are waiting to get the government to the city the, to the permit to a few fires. but honestly, it's very difficult to take any of these initiative from that that made me because i've been getting a little from, from both active support forces. i usually need forces without them getting good promises. i have been told about the m p

initially for mediation, as he got the u as taken out. but i think it would be useful to see a more coordinated amongst all of these national acted, where they all as mediate, you know, more of an organized me. let's hope the next 24 hours brings greater security and peace for all of you that your heart see him. how many collar follow? many thanks for joining us. the fighting in sudan is threatening to worse than an already dia humanitarian situation. martin griffith is un, under secretary general for military affairs and emergency relief coordinator. he says they've had to shut down a program that provides a to 16000000 people. people are moving supplies are being looted. we don't know what stocks left. we've all heard about. the terrible situation in the front line, hospitals, 16 down in khartoum and 16 more. ready to,

to shut down too. but you know, what i want to say very strongly today. is this? yes, we want to get back to that humanitarian a program. but right now, the focus has to be relentlessly and with anger on the fact that people are forced into this lockdown across the country. i cannot begin to imagine the circumstances that those people are facing. 40 degree temperatures, ramadan, fasting, close to eat, food salt, running out no medical supplies, sees father don't work. one message that we all believe i am sure to take for that. is these 2 gentlemen. the 2 generals in charge of these 2 battling forces need to knock it off and they need to do what they say they want to do, which has to respond to the needs of that people. and without that, without that,

what credibility can they have? we've learned about 60000000 people who we know where they were before saturday and we knew what they needed before saturday. now we don't know what is available in the supplies that they need. nor do we know clearly whether they have moved, which is what people do in their distress. for the humanitarian situation, i'm joined now by for read up to come here, the head of the country office to see dan, the in special federation, the red cross and red crescent societies. many thanks for joining us. did you ever expect to see a humanitarian crisis of this kind and what was only a few days ago, a buffalo more than 50 said it to this was an emergency. we cannot proceed. neither do we believe it is happening. the currently, the humanitarian challenge is that the current conflict is causing, is unimaginable. a population of almost 6000000 in hard to milan that are stuck in

their houses with very little, very little water and lack of access to health system. and this is basically, people are in their houses with families that it could not even feed or provide for daughter, provide health services. and what is the red cross and red crescent actually able to do at this current point, given the continuation in the fighting you know, we are in a small way able to support like but on tiers, who are trained and able to do what are currently supporting hospitals within their vicinity where they can be able to access. but most of the communities of people calling for support. calling for evacuation. we are not able to reach them because of lack of security and putting both the volunteers is out of the red good and he's at present entries, but also the people they want to help but risk. so we have the ability, we have the capacity, we have trained volunteers who can provide humanitarian services ranging from food

to provision of water health, psychosocial support. but all of them are not able to perform the work because of lack of access. and he went in and given also the news, the dozens of hospitals and now actually out of action. either they don't have any power, they may have been talking to directly or indirectly. what does that mean for civilians and for the doctors in the medics working there, you know, to say the, to the they, the health system has taken a big deal. i mean from, of course, just coming out of it before that there was demonstration before that there was a little bit notion. so the health system has been constantly put under pressure. they w a supporting another support thing, but at the moment to wait is going you have a health system that is already over, but then you have stuff that are feeling secure and the all that well what and you have a health system that is not properly financed and provided with adequate medical

supplies, the lack of water electricity does not help. so you have a system that is totally over stretch and if it does not get the necessary assistance support, it will collapse that we've been hearing from our previous guest about some people being able to escape the violence and how to many of them fleeing by foods where are they going and how prepared all you and other organizations to potentially have to deal with a critical refugee crisis? you know, so danny's good bearing with several countries, including child central african republic, a libya, we're in touch with all of the red cross reference and in the region preparing for any possible movement of population. but we also see a lot of population movement within the country. the branches to them has their own 18 branches spread throughout the country. with volunteers in almost each and every community within the branch track, just as long as the security will be able to provide support of course,

with the assistant and support from the international community and other organization. but yes, you would see bought the internal movement of population and already being seen and also external movement. but we are in touch with all our countries in the region. busy in red cross, they generate chris and there is a central african republic grid for so we are in touch with the region. yes. so the current violence could well lead to a deepening of the humanitarian crisis for read abdul cutter heads of the international red cross federation. of course in red crescent, we'll see down many thanks for joining us. well, north of the capital hot seem the marijuana international. apple has become one of the front lines of fierce fighting between sedans, army, and the rapid support forces. the army is now taking control of that facility. i was just, there was a some i'm it has this exclusive report. dr. la mother,
