Speaker. despite the efforts of this Congress and the numerous governmental and nongovernmental organizations who are active on the ground in Darfur. the situation continues to deteriorate: atrocity crimes are continuing and people are still dying in large numbers from malnutrition and disease. The humanitarian situation remains catastrophic. due to layers of aid obstruction. the lack of an overall humanitarian strategic plan. and the weakened state of displaced Sudanese. Refugees and internally displaced civilians (IDPs). a disproportionate number of them women. are in terribly weakened states. subject to sexual abuse and without adequate shelter. The numbers of atrisk civilians continue to increase. And as need far outstrips the ability of agencies to deliver aid. localized famine is feared.
