  • The UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi concluded a three-day visit to Egypt with an urgent call for support for people fleeing Sudan -- and the countries hosting refugees -- and for the borders to remain open to those escaping the conflict.
    More than 170,000 people have entered Egypt since the conflict started on 15 April -- many through Qoustul, a border crossing that Grandi visited close to the end of his trip. The country hosts around half of the more than 345,000 people who have recently fled Sudan.
    At the border, Grandi met newly arrived refugees and Egyptian border authorities. ”I heard harrowing experiences: loss of life and property on a huge scale,” Grandi said. “People spoke of risky and expensive journeys to arrive here to safety. Many families have been torn apart. They are traumatized and urgently need our protection and support.“
