'The scale of sexual violence is horrific': MSF head of mission Amande Bazerolle

Sexual violence has become a hallmark of conflict in Sudan, according to a new report from MSF, as the country approaches the fourth anniversary of its civil war. The report highlights the scale of devastation inflicted on civilians in Darfur, set against an even longer history of repeated cycles of violence and atrocity. It reveals that in 2024 and 2025 nearly 3,400 survivors of sexual violence sought care at MSF health facilities across northern and southern Darfur – 97 per cent of them women and girls. In Perspective, we spoke to Amande Bazerolle, Deputy Emergency Operations Manager for Sudan.
