12:09 pm
a classes from the right places from the right. they can region and the quite powerful test against the government's plans to change the legal system. show no signs of slowing down. israel is army chief is one this and yahoo! he's proposed changes could affect the readiness of the army, victoria case and b i, which is there. it's been $100.00 days since fighting 1st broke out in the dawn between the army and permanent to rapid support forces. thousands have been killed . millions left, displaced so far, diplomatic mediation efforts have failed. amik vol. has the story from pulse. we don't want april 15 people in so then woke up to the phones of explosions, up to the shovels on the slides to the generals who came to paula in a 2019 cool. and showed it for 4 years decided to allow us to one another.
12:10 pm
it said it was the only way to achieve a better future for the country. but many believe it's a post on post like a loser, dealing with a one. the metal model since the beginning of the museum, the live by the so called mohammed to come down to gullow, our forces took up the full responsibility, depressed of treasure spots, and the groups behind the elbow, hands behind the state of the political process. he's a criminal and we bring him to justice the suicide seem to have a better estimate to each other think. relying heavily on it's a poet tipped control of its dental comment and the few military bases in and outside the cup to fight this from the support forces. part of me to tell the $22.00 does it does help districts for hi though, it's ok if i made the public facilities including the presidential police to boss of the west to be just a thoughtful i know go to find the state's rights to groups and that you and
12:11 pm
accused auto set fighters of committing atrocities, including most ethnic cleansing rate and the buttons in the city of tanina, capital of west dot for the war has forced up to 3000000 people from their homes. 700000 have fled to neighboring countries. 27000000. so that is affected in some way or another. diplomatic efforts spotted in may with a series of meeting. think that the on the joint us side with the supervision. but they all failed to bring about more than beef humanitarians. these fires not with never respect to dish. so that was of a society, the sudanese army and people believe this one has been imposed on them and that is supported by foreign countries. unfortunately, there's an arrow country standing behind it. and i don't want to hop. i wouldn't move either of them to propose solutions do not contain strategic or smart incentives that could lower the warring sides to serious talks that this war is
12:12 pm
excess central for both sides. and the more drugs on the more pos tragedies evokes for the student needs, which only supplies it with more fuel. this within his army will come the proposals and for the 1st time and know that the dentist and the fighting. if the out of self withdrawal is from public buildings on, by the toes and stops looting for the spots that offers support forces said it's willing to negotiate and hand over power to a civilian government. the 2 sides have since integrations box we did, that's what he's on talks with hopes of a decisive victory on the bicycle on facing the initial altitude. seems to be changing. but there hasn't been any sign of mutual concessions that could lead to peace. how much fun does you fall so that i'm how involved has been speaking to the world food programs, regional direct to michael dunn said about the changes and delivering age to those in need and the prospect is green for us with that. and it is getting worse
12:13 pm
and worse, particularly the humanitarian aspect of this war. the civilians are the main victims of the as well as we all know the statistics out of green about 3000000 have been effected, 3000000 lost their homes. they all know just basically the country and $700000.00 estimated to have left the country should the affected about to $24000000.00. so then these are effected in one way or another. add to have more about this. um, particularly about the humanitarian side. we have with me mike dunford, he's the regional director of the w at the base tonight. it'll be a like to thank you very much for being with. i'll just yell out today. i would like to ask you about your particular specialty, this, the food costs as soon so that because of this war and how much success have you been able to achieve this at a garden? what are the obstacles? thanks very much. as you say, we have a humanitarian catastrophe on our hands. if we are not able to scalar operations,
12:14 pm
immediately, we really will see a situations deteriorating very rapidly. it's a 100 days if you said is over 19000000 people acutely hungry because of the conflict. many have been displaced, as you said, many of crossed international boards, wi fi, the well food program and all the u. n. agencies. looking to see how we can push further into the countries to try and reach the people that we need to. some of the reports i added overnight say that there are many obstacles to what you are doing. the government is not really responding to some of your requests, particularly these as for, do you mind retaining workers and things like that and also moving it around within the country. and so can you, can you elaborate on this? this is one of the most complicated humanitarian responses, anywhere in the world at the moment in security is making it very dangerous for humanitarian workers to push the other into the country. so the 1st thing that we
12:15 pm
need, ideally, is the conflict. and if that doesn't happen, then we need to at least ensure that there is humanitarian access and safe passage so that we can move into places like that for into the code of phones. so that we can reach the populations in desperate need at this time, how many people have you been able to utilize and all, and how many hours to allow it to produce because of what you have just described. so w p is already in the 1st 100 days, being able to reach 1600000 people. it's good, but it's not good enough. and we need to scale that and we need to scale it very, very rapidly. we're importing food, we have food in country, but getting it to where the populations are the mom and cut off because of the conflict because of the fighting is what we now need to overcome. we're looking at trying to bring food in from chad. we're looking to see how we can push the, the into the for but trying to find the transport is the trucks who are prepared to
