    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Violence against civilians in Sudan is “verging on pure evil,” a senior UNofficial has warned, as fighting escalates seven months into the war between the army and paramilitaries.

    “What is happening is verging on pure evil,” she said, citing reports of young girls being raped in front of their mothers.

    The UN refugee agency (UNHCR) pointed to reports that more than 800 people had been killed by armed groups in Ardamata in West Darfur, an area that so far had been less affected by the conflict.

    Ardamata, among other things, houses a camp for people displaced inside Sudan, where UNHCR said nearly 100 shelters had been razed to the ground.

    “Twenty years ago, the world was shocked by the terrible atrocities and human rights violations in Darfur,” Grandi said in a statement.

    But aid groups and medics have repeatedly warned the real toll exceeds recorded figures, with many of those wounded and killed never reaching hospitals or morgues.
