The UK welcomes the UN Security Council passing Resolution 2724, which the UK had drafted. Our top humanitarian priority remains securing immediate humanitarian access and operational security guarantees for humanitarian agencies. We urge the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces to honour their commitment to facilitate access to crossline and other cross-border routes for the delivery of life-saving assistance. The UK continues to work with regional and international partners to secure safe humanitarian access for at need communities.
