 UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Sudan's government is violating international humanitarian law by barring fuel, food and relief aid to civilians in Darfur, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said in a report released Monday.
The report to the U.N. Security Council described in frank terms how the people of Darfur have been exposed to more violence in recent months, even as aid groups are cutting the programs because of insufficient funding.
"Civilians in Darfur continued to suffer the consequences of persistent violence and insecurity," Annan said in the report, which was sent to the Security Council and was to be made public in the coming days.
