The paramilitary bombardment of the city of Sudan of El-Fasher, in the western region of Darfur, has killed more than 30 civilians and wounded Didens more, he said on Monday, April 21. The attack, what weighs the large amount “and the sunny belly, the neighborhoods involved, the neighborhoods involved, said the local resistance committee, one of the hundreds of hundreds or voluntary groups that coordinate the aid through Sudan.

Since April 2023, the war between the Army and the Paramilitary Fast Support forces (RSF) has killed tens of thousands, uprooted 13 million and created what the UN describes as the world’s humanitarian crisis in the world. El-Fafasher, the capital of the state of northern Darfur, remains the last important city in the vast Darfur region that the paramilitary group has not conquered.

Last week, the RSF launched a renewed writing in the city and two nearby displacement camps, Zamzam and Abu Shouk, killing more than 400 people and displacing about 400,000, according to the United Nations.

In a land wave, the RSF Tok Control or the Zamzam camp, where help workers say that up to one million people were taking away. Most of the displaced people fly north, to the city of El-Fafasher, or 60 kilometers (37 miles) west to the small town of Tawila, according to the UN.

For Thursday, more than 150,000 people had arrived at El-Fafasher, while another 180000 had fled to Tawila, said the UN Migration Agency. Humanitarian aid is almost non -existent in both hunger lands.

On Monday, the UN Humanitarian Chief, Tom Fletcher, described the situation in the region as “horrible.” He said he had spoken by phone with the head of the Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan army and the second in command of RSF, Abdelrahim Daylo, who promised to give “full access to get help.”

Through the war, both the army and the RSF have been accused of using hunger as a war gun against civilians.

‘Dangerously restricted’

International aid agencies have long warned that a large-scale RSF assault against El-Fafasher could lead to a devastating urban war and a new wave of mass displacement. UNICEF has described the situation as “hell on earth” for at least 825,000 children trapped in El-Fafas and its surroundings.

After the recapture of the capital’s army, Jartum last month, the RSF has intensive efforts to confiscate El-Fafasher, a strategic objective for paramilitaries, since it seeks to consolidate its control over Darfur. The RSF already controls almost the entire region last, approximately the size of France, as well as parts of the south. The army has the center of the country, east and north. But as the struggle intensifies, the UN has warned about a catastrophic humanitarian situation.

“The humanitarian community in Sudan faces critical and intensifying operational challenges in northern Darfur,” Clementine Nkweta-Salami, a Humanitarian and resident coordinator of the UN in Sudan said Sunday.

He added that “despite repeated appeals, humanitarian access to El-Fafasher and the surrounding surrounding areas dangerously,” warning that the lack of access was “the vulnerability of the sinks of thousands of people.”

Medical doctors without borders has asked for help to help the city in the face of access restrictions.
