 U.N chief Guterres calls for countries fueling Sudan's war to be held accountable United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on Wednesday for countries providing weapons to the warring parties in Sudan that are used to attack civilians to be held accountable. "What is happening in Sudan is absolutely horrible. The humanitarian situation in Sudan is devastating. The level of suffering of the Sudanese people is intolerable," Guterres told reporters ahead of the annual gathering of world leaders at the United Nations in New York next week. Sudan's war, which erupted in April 2023 following a power struggle between the military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, has displaced more than 14 million people and created one of the world's worst humanitarian crises.

 At least one dead in Ireland as Storm Amy batters northern Europe with heavy wind and rain

London’s iconic Royal Parks closed their gates on Saturday as Storm Amy swept across the U.K., Ireland, and parts of Scandinavia, bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and widespread travel disruption on road, rail, and sea. In Ireland, more than 200,000 homes and businesses were left without electricity, and a man in Letterkenny, northwest Ireland, died in what police described as a weather-related incident. Britain’s Met Office reported gusts of up to 96 mph (154 kph) on Friday on the island of Tiree off Scotland’s west coast.

Scotland faced significant disruptions as fallen trees blocked roads and railways, and numerous ferry services were suspended. Fraser Wilson of Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks said crews were working to restore power to roughly 62,000 customers and warned that full recovery would take time due to ongoing severe conditions. In London, major parks including Hyde Park, Regent’s Park, and Richmond Park remained closed all day for safety due to extreme gusts, according to Royal Parks management.

Storm Amy, the first named storm of the season under the U.K., Irish, and Dutch joint naming system, also caused chaos in Sweden, Denmark, and Norway late Friday into Saturday. Tens of thousands of homes lost power as high winds toppled trees and downed power lines, while heavy rain and elevated tides battered coastal regions, highlighting the storm’s wide-reaching impact across northern Europe.
