United Nations (U.N.) Secretary-General António Guterres has warned that Sudan may be close to all-out-civil war after a weekend airstrike killed dozens in the city near the capital of Khartoum.

In a written statement, a U.N. spokesperson expressed the secretary general’s fear that the ongoing conflict between warring armed forces has “pushed Sudan to the brink of a full-scale civil war, potentially destabilizing the entire region.”
