More of the same in Darfur
A month of fresh violence in the Sudanese region of Darfur has driven more than 200,000 people from their homes, the United Nations has said.
Insecurity is also blocking aid to the 1.5 million displaced people inside the region, according to the UN's humanitarian co-ordinator for Sudan.
...nor does the story ever seem to change.
Mr Pronk last week told the UN's Security Council that Sudan's government has failed to keep its promise to end violence in Darfur over the past month.
He said attacks on civilians continued and that both pro-government forces and rebel groups had broken a truce.
Mr Pronk said the army had continued its attacks, sometimes with helicopter gunships and neither the government nor the rebels had respected the ceasefire signed on 8 April.
