Shafaqna English- Displaced families fleeing el-Fasher face dire conditions, lacking blankets, food, and medical supplies.
Montaha Omer Mustafa, 18, was among many people who managed to get out of el-Fasher before the city’s seizure by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group, but only after paying for passage and going days on foot with little water, moving through villages and scrubland.
As fighting closed in on the last big city held by the government-aligned Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in North Darfur state, tens of thousands of residents fled westwards, abandoning homes, possessions, and even family members.
