“Popular Initiative Launched to Rehabilitate Darbat Rural Hospital (Women and Maternity Complex) in East Jebel Marra”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – July 16, 2025

Amid the deteriorating health conditions in the East Jebel Marra areas —specifically in the Dira district—a grassroots initiative has been launched to rehabilitate Darbat Rural Hospital, focusing in particular on the Women and Maternity Complex. The facility had ceased operations due to a severe shortage of medical services and staff.

The initiative, led by local citizens, aims to mobilize both public and official support to complete essential renovation work, which includes:

– Constructing three additional rooms.
– Building three toilets and three bathrooms.
– Erecting three additional shelters.
– Repairing the hospital’s internal electrical system.
– Providing essential medicine supplies.
– Establishing administrative offices and a pharmacy.
– Adding ten new hospital beds.
– Repairing the hospital’s ambulance.

The organizing committee has called on all community members and organizations to support the project through the following bank account:

This initiative is a swift community response to the ongoing health crisis in the region, amid growing calls for urgent intervention from government bodies and humanitarian organizations to ensure the continuation of life-saving healthcare services.

 

 

 

“Jebel Marra: “Golo” Residents of the “Vegetable Market” Face Catastrophic Health Conditions Due to Lack of Shelter Materials”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – July 13, 2025

In a scene that encapsulates the suffering of thousands of residents in the Golo area of Jebel Marra, Sudan Sawa Sawa has documented recent images from the central vegetable market, locally known as Zanki al-Khodar in Golo – Jebel Marra. The photos reveal the dire conditions in which both local citizens and displaced people have been living since they fled to the area following the outbreak of the war on April 15, 2025, in various regions of Sudan.

According to Sudan Sawa Sawa’s correspondent reporting from inside the market, the community suffers from a complete lack of basic shelter materials, especially plastic tarpaulins, which are essential for protection during Sudan’s rainy season. Residents confirm that the absence of these materials has worsened health challenges within the market.

“Zanki al-Khodar” has become one of the many informal centers that now serve as makeshift shelters for a large number of displaced families, amid an almost total absence of humanitarian support from both local and international organizations.

The residents have issued an urgent appeal to the authorities and humanitarian organizations to intervene immediately and provide tarpaulins and other essential shelter materials to mitigate the growing health and environmental risks.

It is worth noting that this crisis is part of the escalating humanitarian deterioration in the Darfur region since the war erupted on April 15, 2023, which has led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands and increased the suffering of civilians across various parts of Sudan.

 

 

 

“Displaced Fatima Faces Flooding in Sharga AL Neel Camp, Darfur: A Tragic Start to the Rainy Season”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – July 10, 2025

As the rainy season begins, the internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in the Sharga AL Neel, an area of Wadi Azum locality, Central Darfur State, has been hit by sudden flooding during June and July. The floods have exposed the fragility of the camp’s infrastructure and the total absence of basic protective measures for the displaced, who are already living in extremely harsh humanitarian conditions.

Fatima Amin, a displaced mother of five and currently in the final stages of pregnancy, shared her story with Sudan Sawa Sawa. She lives in a simple shelter made of straw and fabric—completely inadequate against wind or rain. Fatima recounted how the first rainfall of the season caught her off guard, leading to severe flooding that swept through her shelter and destroyed her few belongings.

Fatima’s economic situation has drastically deteriorated. She survives on daily informal labor, with no consistent income or adequate relief assistance. Her husband works in a remote area without mobile network coverage, which only deepens her sense of isolation and insecurity.

Fatima’s ordeal reflects the broader reality faced by thousands of displaced families across Darfur. Camps still lack even the most basic necessities for shelter, healthcare, and food, all while climate and humanitarian risks continue to grow.

An Urgent Call for Immediate Action:

Fatima’s story is a dire warning, raising serious questions about the effectiveness of humanitarian response in displacement areas. Her experience highlights the urgent need for safe shelter, specialized healthcare—particularly for pregnant women—and the importance of empowering women economically while strengthening social protection networks.

Importantly, Fatima’s case is not an isolated one. It represents a larger collective suffering, shaped by ongoing conflict and harsh environmental conditions. As rainfall continues and population density in displacement camps rises, immediate action by authorities and humanitarian organizations is no longer optional—it is an urgent necessity.

 

 

 

“Mershing Under Control: Escalating Violations Against Civilians Amid Absence of Accountability in South Darfur”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – July 8, 2025

The locality of Mershing, in South Darfur State, is witnessing a concerning deterioration in security conditions amid a sharp rise in serious violations against civilians. These abuses are allegedly being committed by members of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), starting from June and continuing into recent days.

On Monday, July 7, 2025, two civilians were reportedly killed in separate incidents within Mershing City. At approximately 6:00 p.m., a young girl named Tehani Mohamed Khalid, a university graduate from Faculty of Education at El Geneina University, was killed. And according to local sources and eyewitnesses speaking to Sudan Sawa Sawa, the perpetrators are believed to be affiliated with the Rapid Support Forces.

Later, the same day, 30-year-old Saif Al-Din Mohamed Saif Al-Din was also killed by members of the same force within the city. This occurred amid an atmosphere of fear and tension that residents have been living under for weeks.

Sources informed Sudan Sawa Sawa that Mershing locality—which is under the control of the Rapid Support Forces—has become a scene of repeated violations, including torture, arbitrary arrests, and extrajudicial killings. There has been a complete failure to hold those responsible accountable or bring them to justice, despite the presence of an appointed administrative official for the area.

These developments are part of a broader pattern of violence and lawlessness affecting several regions in the Darfur region since the escalation of armed conflict in the country. There are growing concerns that areas under RSF control are turning into hotspots for human rights abuses in the absence of effective oversight and legal accountability mechanisms.

Calls for Investigation and Accountability:

Activists and human rights organizations are calling for transparent and independent investigations into these incidents, demanding that perpetrators be held legally accountable and that civilian protection be ensured. Observers stress that the continued impunity is exacerbating both the humanitarian and security situation and poses a serious threat to social peace in South Darfur.

 

 

 

“Deteriorating Mental Health: Severe Shortage of Treatment and Specialized Personnel”

By: Hussein Saad

Sudan Sawa Sawa – July 6, 2025

Mental health in Sudan has been facing a worsening crisis since the outbreak of war in April 2023. The deteriorating security and political situation has led to widespread psychological suffering among the population. At the same time, the country is experiencing a severe shortage of specialized health personnel in this field.

According to reports from both international and local humanitarian organizations, millions of Sudanese are suffering from the psychological effects of forced displacement, loss of loved ones, destruction of homes, and the collapse of stability—all within an environment lacking basic services, including psychological and social support.

Doctors and specialists indicate that the most affected groups are children and women, as cases of depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have risen significantly amid the absence of primary mental healthcare services. It is estimated that there are currently only a few dozen psychiatrists working in Sudan, while millions of displaced people live in remote areas or overcrowded camps without any form of psychological support.

The crisis has deepened with the departure of many healthcare professionals from the country, either fleeing the war or due to the collapse of the healthcare system.

Professor Abdullah Shuwali, a psychology professor at Bahri University, stated:
“The situation is tragic. There are no resources, no medications, and not even a safe environment. We try to do what we can, but the numbers are far beyond our capacity.”

In an interview with Sudanese Reports, Shuwali explained that before the war, there were around 23 consultants and specialists in psychiatry, most of whom worked in Khartoum—equating to one psychiatrist per 100,000 people. He pointed to several hospitals that provide psychiatric care, such as Tijani Al-Mahi, Taha Ba’ashar, and Al-Idrisi, in addition to some state-level hospitals.

He noted that mental health treatment was only included in health insurance during the transitional government period, following pressure from the Association of Mental Health Professionals.

Shuwali attributed the exodus of mental health professionals to the government’s lack of interest in the sector, low salaries, and the absence of a supportive work environment. He emphasized that the war has exacerbated the number of mental health cases and stressed the urgent need to support mental healthcare, provide competitive salaries, and ensure up-to-date training.

He pointed out a critical shortage in mental health services, the absence of specialized centers, and the limited availability of data, which is currently the result of individual efforts. He explained that Sudan lacks laws requiring institutions to publish research related to mental health.

He also highlighted the challenges hindering the work of mental health personnel, such as poor funding, lack of security and safety, difficulty in mobility, and communication. He warned that neglecting this sector will have grave long-term consequences, especially for an entire generation of children and youth growing up in a climate of violence and destruction.

 

 

 

 

“Amidst Gunfire: Voices of Peace Take the Lead and Defy the Gun (1–2)”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – June 28, 2025
Report by: Hussein Saad

Amid the rubble of destroyed villages and cities, and homes abandoned by their residents due to the devastating war that has plagued Sudan since its outbreak on April 15, 2023 — between the Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces — despite the widespread destruction affecting both people and infrastructure, and the horrific deterioration of humanitarian conditions, voices have risen.

These are voices that carry no weapons but raise the banners of peace — women, youth, elders, children, and an exhausted yet resilient civil society — calling for peace, for an end to the war machine that has torn the country apart, and for the salvation of what remains of the homeland. These voices, born of pain and suffering, come in the form of grassroots initiatives, artistic calls, feminist efforts, youth-led and media campaigns — all striving to silence the sound of gunfire and amplify the voice of humanity.

These voices are not armed with rifles or laden with bombs — they are fueled by hope, sent from the depths of hearts, consciences, and voices. They are the voices of peace. Despite the destruction and difficulties, Sudanese men and women in civil society, as well as creative media professionals and artists, have returned to the forefront with powerful messages through songs, plays, and visual art that reject war and inspire hope.

Artistic groups have presented new works condemning the war and reviving the spirit of Sudanese solidarity. Visual artists have painted murals on the ruins of destroyed buildings. Some social media platforms have turned into podiums for peace, with users sharing content calling for the cessation of bloodshed, opposing hate speech and racism, documenting war crimes, and launching campaigns demanding an end to the war and aid for civilians. Others have written phrases like “The homeland belongs to all” and “No to war, yes to peace.”

The Pain of the People:

Despite the deep anguish engulfing the nation, sparks of hope still emerge in both individual and collective initiatives led by youth and women who believe the country deserves a second chance. In forgotten neighborhoods, villages, rural areas, displacement camps, and closed university campuses, small circles of dialogue are forming, awareness workshops are being held, and bridges of trust are being built between communities torn apart by war.

These efforts represent the first building blocks of a genuine peace — not one imposed from above, but one built from the ground up, from the pain and lost dignity of the people. Women, despite facing compounded physical and psychological violence, have insisted on being present in the scene of change — not as victims, but as leaders and initiators. They lead peace marches and establish centers for psychological and social support.

Meanwhile, youth have chosen to confront the culture of war with a culture of life. They’ve become active in shelters and emergency rooms, offering food and medical care, spreading messages of hope through social media, and resisting marginalization by creating alternative spaces for expression and participation.

The voices of peace are drawing the contours of a diverse Sudan — free of war and hatred. A Sudan whose fate is not decided by guns, but one built on justice, inclusion, and recognition of its diversity. This ancient nation — long a beacon of culture and resilience — does not deserve to be reduced to a map of conflicts, nor should it be left alone to face its wounds.

Let these voices — the voices of youth and women — be the final cry before silence engulfs everything. Let peace not remain a mere slogan, but a real path paved by the will of the people and written by sacrifices that have never ceased. In a homeland exhausted by wars and fire that has displaced thousands of lives, the voices of peace still rise from the ruins — faint, but sincere — calling for a homeland that embraces its people rather than tears them apart.

In Sudan, the cries of grieving mothers, the moans of displaced children, and the screams of young people robbed of their dreams and futures grow louder. Amidst this darkness, the participation of women, youth, and civil society shines like candles defying extinction — holding olive branches in one hand and a crucified homeland in their hearts. The war, which makes no distinction between young and old, has left no home untouched by pain. Yet it has also failed to silence the calls for peace, which have now become more urgent than ever.

Their voices are not merely hopeful — they are a national and moral necessity to save what remains of Sudan and end this prolonged cycle of bloodshed and suffering.

Memory of Pain:

Though today we write about war, tomorrow we hope to write about return, about reconciliation, about the birth of a homeland rising from the ashes like a phoenix — bearing in its eyes the memory of pain, yet moving steadily toward a future it deserves.

Sudan does not deserve this silence, nor does it suit this devastation. It is the land of poets who sang of love and freedom, the land of Kandakas (strong Sudanese women) who prayed for peace in every supplication, and the land of children who dreamed of schools, not military camps.

Today, the voice of peace in Sudan resembles a desperate cry — a plea from a soul worn down by suffering, knocking on the doors of the world with the tears of men and women, the patience of mothers, and the voices of youth who have not yet lost their ability to dream. In times of war, clinging to hope becomes an act of resistance; words become weapons against destruction, and dialogue becomes a narrow path — but the only one that can lead to life.

The youth — who have lost their opportunities for education and employment and who know the sound of gunfire more than the sound of school bells — do not ask for much. Only that the war ends. That they be given the chance to live, like all other people on Earth.

And the women — who found themselves guarding empty homes and nursing wounds that would not heal — have today become active participants in every arena of peaceful struggle. They establish initiatives, distribute food, and build bridges of trust in communities torn apart by racism, hatred, and displacement.

But peace does not come from a void. It requires political will, public pressure, and the genuine inclusion of those long marginalized — foremost among them youth and women. That is why these voices, rising today from the ruins, are not begging for charity. They are demanding their rights: the right to life, the right to safety, and the right to build Sudan with the hands of all its children, even on the ruins of their shattered dreams.

If these cries are not answered, Sudan will continue heading toward a darker future. But if they are heard, they may mark the beginning of a way out — the start of a new chapter titled: “A Peace Made by Its People.”

Peace Written in Love:

The women who lost their sons, the youth whose dreams were shattered on the frontlines, the artists who resisted with paintings and songs — they are not just victims. They are the guardians of memory and the builders of the peace to come. Their voices are the only remaining truth amid the lies of war, the only light at the end of this long tunnel.

Let this plea be the final word:
No to war. No to senseless death. No to the destruction of nations.
Yes to peace created by the people — not governments alone.
Yes to peace written in love, not in bullets.
Yes to a new Sudan, where the voice of poetry rises louder than the voice of guns.

What breaks the heart is that these calls for peace are sometimes met with neglect or repression — as if calling for an end to war were a crime, or as if demanding life were a form of rebellion. In a country oscillating between signing fragile peace agreements and the threat of total collapse, the basic demands of the people — for safety, food, and education — are treated as luxuries by those in power, while in reality, they are the most basic human rights.

The women who lost sons and husbands in the inferno of war did not find time to grieve. They were forced into roles far beyond their capacity — breadwinners, caregivers, comforters of frightened children. And yet, their will was never broken. Today, they are shaping a new language of peace — one understood by every mother who has lost, and every girl who watched war steal her childhood.

As for the youth, they are a generation born into crisis — who rarely, if ever, tasted stability. Yet they did not choose to withdraw. On the contrary, they are at the frontlines of every initiative demanding transitional justice, every call for change, and every dream of a country where authority is not held by force of arms, but protected by law and constitution. Although the road to peace is long and exhausting, these efforts — these souls clinging to hope — tell us something vital:

Sudan is not dead. There is still a heartbeat. There is still life.
And it can rise again — if we truly listen to the voices of the people, not the sounds of artillery. It is time to end the bleeding. To lay down arms.
Not merely through top-down decisions, but with a collective will rising from the depths of the streets, from mothers’ tears, and from the hands of young people raised endlessly in pursuit of freedom.

The future of Sudan cannot be built on ruins — it must be built on reconciliation, acknowledgment, and justice. We must listen more than we explain. We must humble ourselves more than we boast. Every moment of delay means more death. More division. More generations losing faith in the very idea of a homeland.

Is the world listening? Has conscience awakened?
Sudan is calling — in the voices of its mothers, youth, and women — is there anyone to answer?

 

 

 

 

“Preventive Efforts in Jebel Marra: Emergency Room Launches Environmental Cleanup Campaign in Preparation for the Rainy Season”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – June 26, 2025

As a proactive measure aimed at mitigating the impact of the rainy season and preventing potential environmental and health disasters, the Emergency Room – Liwein District, in coordination with the Tawila Emergency Room – Jebel Marra, has announced the launch of a large-scale environmental and street cleaning campaign starting in June 2025.

The campaign covers several key areas within the Jebel Marra region, including Keti, Brio, Joldo, and Liwein. And the Intensive field activities have been organized to clean neighborhoods, remove waste, clear drainage systems, and facilitate water runoff. Local communities have actively participated, highlighting the importance of environmental preservation and preventive measures against diseases associated with waste accumulation and stagnant water.
This initiative comes amid growing concerns about the worsening environmental situation at the start of the rainy season, especially in areas lacking the necessary infrastructure to handle floods or proper drainage.

Local Coordination and Community Support:

Speaking a member of the Emergency Room to Sudan Sawa Sawa, “that the Coordination with the Tawila Emergency Room has been essential to ensure the distribution and integration of efforts, while involving the local community in cleaning and health prevention activities.” He confirmed that the campaign would continue for several days to address as many pollution hotspots and potential risks as possible.

Calls for Support and Expanded Participation:

The organizing bodies have called on all local and international organizations, as well as community activists, to contribute to the campaign—whether through logistical supplies, technical support, or awareness initiatives—to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of these interventions.

This campaign underscores that early preparation for the rainy season is no longer optional but an urgent necessity, given the effects of climate change and the increasing rainfall that threatens the lives of residents in many parts of Sudan. The Jebel Marra region, in particular, remains one of the most vulnerable due to its geographical and environmental characteristics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“How Did the Lack of Healthcare Services in Darbat Lead to a Patient’s Death? A Tragedy Unfolds in Eastern Jebel Marra”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – June 25, 2025

In a heartbreaking incident that highlights the severe deterioration of healthcare services in the Jebel Marra region, 65-year-old Halima Abdel Jabbar Nasor Suleiman died in the area of Darbat in eastern Jebel Marra after her health condition rapidly declined.

According to Sudan Sawa Sawa’s correspondent, Mrs. Halima did not receive adequate medical care during the critical hours preceding her death. The Rural Darbat Women and Maternity Hospital suffers from a severe lack of medical resources, an acute shortage of medical and nursing staff, and an almost complete absence of essential medicines and basic supplies. This has left the facility incapable of providing even the most basic healthcare services, particularly to vulnerable groups such as the elderly and pregnant women.

In a related development, Sudan Sawa Sawa had previously reported similar cases, including the tragic death of a fetus in the womb of its mother due to the inability to provide necessary medical care. The pregnant woman, 25 years old, was transported to the Tawila Locality for surgery but later succumbed as well.

These incidents shed light on the grim healthcare reality in Darbat and the eastern Jebel Marra region, where humanitarian support is scarce, and the intervention of aid organizations is minimal despite worsening living conditions. The repeated tragedies raise serious questions about accountability for such deaths, especially in light of the apparent inaction to address the accelerating healthcare collapse.

Although the death of Mrs. Halima occurred quietly, it has become a humanitarian outcry, calling for urgent intervention to restore even the most basic level of medical services to the region—before Darbat turns into a devastated health disaster zone where lost lives are reduced to uncounted statistics.

 

 

 

“Displaced People Under the Rain: Heavy Rains Destroy Fragile Shelter in Hamidiya Camp in Zalingei”

Sudan Sawa Sawa – June 20, 2025

The camera of “Sudan Sawa Sawa” captured live scenes of heavy rainfall that lasted for over four hours on Thursday, June 19, 2025. This caused direct damage to several shelters within the Hamidiya camp in Zalingei, Central Darfur, particularly affecting the displacement centers “Dar Al-Salam” and “Al-Amal.”

According to a reporter from Sudan Sawa Sawa, the floods resulting from the rain caused water to seep into tents and temporary mud dwellings, leading to the destruction of displaced people’s belongings. The living conditions for the displaced, especially for children, women, and the elderly, are deteriorating, as they face increasingly difficult humanitarian circumstances.

Zalingei is one of the areas most affected by seasonal rains in the Darfur region, compounded by a lack of adequate infrastructure and proper drainage systems within the camps. This incident highlights the urgent need for humanitarian interventions to improve shelter conditions and enhance protective measures as the peak of the rainy season approaches.

In a related context, activists from civil society organizations have called on local authorities and humanitarian organizations to take immediate action to provide necessary assistance and mitigate the impacts of recurring natural disasters that threaten the lives of thousands of displaced people.

 

“Displaced People in Golo Face Rain Without Safe Shelter: Under Thatch and Cloth”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 19, 2025

A correspondent for Sudan Sawa Sawa reported that displaced individuals fleeing from the conflict to the Golo area in the Jebel Marra region are facing dire humanitarian conditions as the rainy season begins. They are living in makeshift shelters, and heavy rains on the 17th and 18th of June have damaged their belongings that increased health risks amid a severe shortage of tarps and a lack of urgent humanitarian support.

These affected families are urgently appealing to humanitarian organizations for assistance in providing shelter and protective supplies. This suffering is an extension of the ongoing displacement crisis in Darfur due to conflicts and deteriorating security conditions, which is putting additional pressure on inadequately equipped shelters.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Escalating Attacks: Young Girl Killed During Outing…. Security Absent”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 15, 2025

A tragic murder occurred on June 14, 2025, resulting in the death of the young girl Tahani Mohamed Khalid while she was on an outing in the Mershang locality of South Darfur, accompanied by a group of girls. The group was attacked by armed members of the Rapid Support Forces.

And according to local sources and eyewitnesses who spoke to Sudan Sawa Sawa, these armed individuals stopped the girls in the valley of Mershang locality, and one of them directly threatened the victim, demanding to hand over mobile phone. Initial information indicates that Ms. Khalid, the victim, attempted to resist or escape, prompting one of the assailants to use excessive violence against her, leading to her immediate death.

Witness statements revealed that the perpetrators fled the scene before any security support arrived, while her friends remained in a state of shock and extreme fear.

The crime has sparked widespread outrage among the local population, who expressed increasing concern over the repetition of such incidents. Additionally, the Mershang locality is controlled by the Rapid Support Forces, which lack a regular security presence. Activists and local stakeholders have called for urgent measures to enhance community protection, especially for girls and women.

It is notable that this incident occurs amid a noticeable rise in assaults and organized crimes in the Mershang locality.

 

 

“Launch of Community Initiative for Cleaning the Dira-Darbat Road East of Jebel Marra in the Karo Federation”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 13, 2025

East Jebel Marra – Darbat

In light of the increasing environmental challenges that accompany the onset of the rainy season, the Karo Federation, in collaboration with local communities, has launched a broad community campaign to clean and level the road connecting the Dira and Darbat areas, east of Jebel Marra.

This grassroots initiative comes at a critical time, as the region prepares for the rainy season, which brings heavy rains that can significantly affect dirt road networks and hinder the movement of citizens in the Jebel Marra areas.

Community Awareness and Early Preparation:

Residents flocked to the worksite ahead of the rainy season to level the dirt and clean the grass and potholes along the road. Participants expressed their full awareness of the dangers of neglecting road maintenance during this sensitive time of year.

Local residents told Sudan Sawa Sawa, “We know that the upcoming rains could completely block the road if we don’t prepare for them now. That’s why this initiative was launched by the Karo Federation.”

The Road: A Threatened Lifeline:

The Dira-Darbat road is a vital artery for transporting patients, students, and agricultural products, especially with the start of the farming season. Typically, heavy rains lead to flooding of side ditches and soil erosion, turning some sections into muddy swamps.

Documentation and Community Motivation:

Sudan Sawa Sawa accompanied the campaign with its camera, documenting the stages of work and testimonials from participants, highlighting the efforts of local communities in managing their own affairs.

A Model for Rural Communities:

This initiative serves as a model for rural areas in Sudan, where people overcome climatic and political challenges through solidarity and collective action. The federation has called on neighboring communities to emulate this experience.

 

 

 

“We Don’t Feel Safe… The Conflict Has Taken Everything from Us.”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 10, 2025

Amid ongoing armed conflict and worsening humanitarian conditions in Darfur, the tragedy of 37-year-old displaced woman Awadia highlights the harsh reality faced by thousands fleeing the ravages of conflict.

Awadia, who was displaced from the “Hassa Hessa” camp to “Five Minutes camp,” has temporarily settled in the “Hejar” dormitory in Zalingei, which has turned into an overcrowded shelter lacking even the most basic necessities for a dignified life. She shares her story with a reporter from “Sudan Sawa Sawa,” expressing that the feeling of safety is nonexistent, as armed strangers enter the shelters at night, raising concerns and increasing tension among women and children.

The health situation within the center is equally dire, with a complete absence of medical services. Displaced families rely on traditional home remedies due to the lack of humanitarian organizations. Awadia notes that the only emergency room that provided some support has suspended its activities for over eight months, exacerbating residents’ suffering.

In terms of livelihood, most displaced individuals depend on simple daily labor to secure food. Children aged 7 to 10 work in marginal jobs, while adults head to farms to earn a living, all amid harsh and unstable conditions.

Awadia emphasizes that the conflict has not only stripped them of their homes and belongings but has also deprived them of safety, health, and food, leaving deep psychological scars. She concludes her remarks with a poignant plea:
“We urge for an end to the conflict… We just want peace and to return to a dignified life that preserves what little dignity we have left.”

 

 

 

“Makeshift Homes of Straw and Fabric: Displaced People in Tawila Area Face Autumn Challenges in the Open”

Tawila: Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 8, 2025

Displaced individuals in the Tawila area are living under extremely difficult humanitarian conditions, with many residing in makeshift shelters made of straw, fabric, and tree branches. Some are forced to sleep outdoors without any protection.

A field survey conducted by a correspondent from Sudan Sawa Sawa revealed that the impending autumn season has heightened the fears of these displaced individuals who lack the most basic necessities for a dignified life. Their lives are at real risk due to the absence of protection.

Therefore, through the platform of Sudan Sawa Sawa, these displaced individuals are urgently appealing to humanitarian organizations working in the fields of shelter and settlement for immediate intervention. They seek assistance to save their lives by providing tarps and essential supplies to secure a shelter that preserves their dignity and protects them from the rain.

 

“Mukjar: 70 to 90 Cases of Diarrhea and Infections Daily in Mukjar”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 4, 2025

A member of the emergency room in Mukjar, who preferred to remain anonymous for security reasons, revealed to Sudan Sawa Sawa that the health situation in the locality has deteriorated significantly since the beginning of this week, with daily increases in reported cases.

The medical team at the Mukjar locality hospital in Central Darfur informed Sudan Sawa Sawa that the number of cases recorded daily ranges between 70 and 90. This surge is putting immense pressure on health facilities, which are suffering from a severe shortage of medical supplies and medications, as well as essential testing equipment.

Currently, the available devices are traditional and limited to malaria testing, which is insufficient for diagnosing widespread cases. Residents in the area have expressed their growing concern about the rising number of infections, reiterating their urgent appeal to humanitarian organizations for immediate intervention to contain this crisis.

“Deterioration of Health and Humanitarian Situation in Mukjar Locality, Central Darfur”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, June 2, 2025

The Mukjar Emergency Room has issued an urgent humanitarian appeal, calling for immediate intervention from international and regional organizations concerned with humanitarian and health issues. This plea comes in response to the significant deterioration in the health and humanitarian sectors within the locality, exacerbated by the ongoing armed conflict in the region.

Health Situation:

– There has been a sharp decline in emergency and ambulance services at health centers and clinics, with an almost complete absence of rapid response capabilities.

– There is a severe shortage of essential medications, intravenous fluids, and necessary medical supplies.

– A noticeable lack of medical personnel due to displacement and security conditions, along with the absence of logistical support for health facilities.

– The outbreak of serious diseases such as measles, acute watery diarrhea, and severe malnutrition, particularly among children.

– Deterioration of reproductive health services and a lack of safe delivery conditions, threatening the lives of pregnant women.

– A complete absence of preventive services as the rainy season approaches, raising concerns about the spread of epidemics like malaria.

– Weak or entirely halted food distribution and humanitarian aid operations, further increasing the suffering of local residents.

Urgent Appeal:

The Emergency Room calls for:

1. Immediate intervention from international and regional organizations working in the humanitarian and health sectors to provide urgent support.

2. Supply of health centers with medical supplies, medications, and essential fluids to save lives.

3. Implementation of urgent campaigns for nutrition, public health, and epidemic prevention, especially in light of the threat of malaria and diseases related to malnutrition.

Nyala: “Economic Challenges and Unceasing Storms of War”

Nyala: Sudan Sawa Sawa, March 17, 2025

The city of Nyala, the capital of South Darfur State, is grappling with a severe crisis in vegetable prices as the economic situation worsens and residents suffer from the repercussions of war that have devastated the essentials of life in the city.

Vegetable prices have skyrocketed to unprecedented levels, as reported by a correspondent from Sudan Sawa Sawa during a tour of Nyala’s markets. The prices are as follows:

– A sack of potatoes has risen from 80,000 to 140,000
– A sack of okra has increased from 30,000 to 60,000
– A sack of green beans has jumped from 25,000 to 95,000
– A sack of tomatoes has gone up from 15,000 to 40,000

Conversely, the prices of sacks of onions, sugar, corn, and other food items have decreased significantly, leading to a decline in commercial activity in the city, despite markets being fully open. Citizens are struggling with the greed of traders who prefer to export vegetables to neighboring cities, causing persistent price instability and a continuous shortage of goods.

It has also been noted that the decline in commercial activity is partly due to the non-payment of salaries to most workers in the city since the onset of the war, along with the disruption of water, electricity, and communication services, which has exacerbated the suffering of Nyala’s residents.

 

 

“Zalingei Under the Weight of Wars and Displacement: Until When?”

Zalingei: Sudan Sawa Sawa, March 14, 2025

A correspondent from Sudan Sawa Sawa reports that the residents of Darfur have been suffering since the outbreak of conflict on April 15, 2024. Many have lost their lives and have had their human rights violated. In Zalingei, citizens face harsh conditions due to the lack of basic humanitarian services needed for survival, especially for those displaced in the camps. These camps have seen a significant increase in population as most of the city’s residents seek safety.

The suffering has worsened with the cessation of humanitarian activities by organizations operating in Zalingei. In terms of food, residents are facing a severe shortage of food aid, as most do not receive assistance to meet their needs. For instance, a family of ten struggles to obtain food rations that amount to just two or three individuals per month, despite soaring prices for basic food items, such as sugar costing 150,000 Sudanese pounds, bread at 5,000, and beef at 8,000. This assistance is insufficient to satisfy the hunger of the citizens, leading to the deaths of thousands of children due to malnutrition, in addition to pregnant and nursing women.

A resident of Zalingei, who requested anonymity, spoke about the health situation, noting that health centers are suffering from a severe shortage of medicines and rising prices, as well as inadequate laboratory equipment. Conditions have deteriorated further with the halt of health support activities, which represented the only hope in the displacement camps. Health is the foundation of life, yet dozens, especially children, women, and the elderly, are dying due to a lack of treatment. Additionally, non-functional water stations leave citizens struggling to access clean drinking water.

Regarding education, the educational process is completely halted, leading to the loss of the future for youth and children. Many children enter the labor market at inappropriate ages, while young people suffer from unemployment and a lack of opportunities.

In terms of security, each day witnesses the death of individuals searching for food, with women facing assaults. The lives of Zalingei residents heavily depend on mothers, who are subjected to looting and violence, with some being killed on their way.

 

 

 

“Security Breakdown and Forced Migration of Nyala Residents”

South Darfur: Sudan Sawa Sawa, March 10, 2025

A correspondent for Sudan Sawa Sawa reported that the city of Nyala, the capital of South Darfur state, has experienced continuous tragic incidents since the outbreak of war on April 15. Citizens have suffered from theft and killings, with many losing their lives at the hands of armed assailants in the city’s markets and outskirts.

One resident told Sudan Sawa Sawa: “The security situation in this city deteriorates day by day, with unprecedented levels of chaos, causing citizens to live in fear and anxiety.” He added that all of the city’s markets are witnessing frequent thefts and robberies, particularly in the popular market, the Geneina station, and the Kadira market. Residents are unable to carry large quantities of goods or secure them in their shops, and the more money they carry, the greater the threat of robbery, whether from individuals posing as soldiers or riding motorcycles.

Another young man, who requested anonymity, stated: “The Rapid Support Forces have controlled the city for over a year, yet they make no effort to stop these negative phenomena.” He pointed out that the security breakdown has become normal in the city, with weapons circulating among people unrelated to the conflicts, in addition to the mobilization of underage youths.

Last Saturday evening, four citizens were killed in the Kadira market, sparking significant unrest between the Messiriya and Salamat tribes. A state of emergency was declared in the market, with traders and vendors being forcibly prevented from operating and subjected to flogging.

The persistence of these horrifying incidents poses a real threat to the citizens of Nyala, with the population in the city having reduced to only 30%. This has forced many to migrate forcibly to areas such as “Tawila” and “Jebel Marra” in search of safety.

 

 

“Humanitarian Efforts to Support 300 Displaced Families in the “Libah” Area East of Jebel Marra”

Jebel Marra: Sudan Sawa Sawa, March 9, 2025

As part of the ongoing efforts by humanitarian organizations in collaboration with local authorities in the “Libah” area of the Amu district east of Jebel Marra, a program was carried out to distribute food aid targeting 300 displaced and vulnerable families. This initiative was conducted by Mercy Corps (MC). The humanitarian assistance included the following items:

– 50 kg of sugar
– One jerrycan of oil
– One sack of rice
– One sack of flour
– One carton of soap

Local sources reported that the difficulty in delivering humanitarian aid has negatively impacted the performance of organizations and donors, which has adversely affected the lives of displaced individuals in camps throughout most areas of Darfur.

In recent months, the displaced have been suffering from harsh conditions due to a lack of available assistance and the challenges of daily life, especially with the approach of Ramadan and the associated needs for breaking the fast. This makes humanitarian aid essential to ensure their survival.

 

 

“Emergency Room – Water Crisis in the “Frok” Area of North Darfur”

Kutum: Sudan Sawa Sawa, March 7, 2025

The “Frok” area in Kutum, North Darfur, is currently facing a severe water crisis that threatens the daily lives of its residents, who rely on this vital resource for their livelihoods. The roots of this crisis can be traced to several factors, including the deterioration of pumps and the lack of necessary spare parts, which have exacerbated the situation and threatened water and economic security.

Surveys from the emergency response team have identified the following key reasons for the crisis:

1. Pump Malfunctions: Most water pumps in the area are experiencing breakdowns due to prolonged use without regular maintenance, compounded by environmental factors such as soil conditions and untreated water.

2. Shortage of Spare Parts: The lack of necessary spare parts for repairing the pumps is one of the main challenges. The unavailability of suitable alternatives has led to the shutdown of many pumps, further complicating the situation.

3. Climate Change and Drought: Reduced rainfall and declining groundwater levels have increased pressure on the available pumps, making them prone to frequent malfunctions.

Additionally, residents of the “Frok” area are facing significant difficulties in obtaining clean drinking water, forcing them to travel long distances or purchase water at high prices. Water scarcity has led to deteriorating public hygiene and the spread of diseases associated with contaminated water.

The water crisis in the Frok area requires urgent and comprehensive intervention from relevant authorities to ensure the sustainability of water resources and improve the living conditions of the residents.

“Thousands of Displaced Persons in Rokro Area Living in Tragic Humanitarian Conditions”

Report
Jebel Marra: Sudan Sawa Sawa, February 7, 2025

The Rokro area is one of the administrative units located north of Jebel Marra and has suffered for decades from the effects of armed conflict. Currently, it has become a refuge for thousands of displaced persons who have fled here to escape the ongoing conflict that has persisted for nearly twenty months.

Displaced individuals are living in shelters in Rokro under tragic conditions, facing significant challenges in securing their basic needs. They lack the most essential elements of daily life, including food, water, shelter materials, healthcare, and education.

Thousands of displaced individuals from various regions of Darfur, particularly from the city of El Fasher, have sought refuge here due to recurring events. If the situation continues as it is, we will face the risk of a severe famine. Therefore, there is an urgent need for United Nations agencies and international and regional organizations to enter the area to alleviate the suffering of the displaced and the local population. It is worth noting that this area is under the control of the Sudan Liberation Movement/Army led by Abdul Wahid Nour.

 

 

“General Coordination of Displaced Persons Statement on Bombardment of Cities, Camps, and Villages in Darfur”

Sudan Sawa Sawa Now, February 6, 2025

For the sixth consecutive day, the Sudanese army has continued its airstrikes on neighborhoods in Nyala city, targeting areas densely populated with unarmed civilians. This bombardment has resulted in horrific massacres, claiming the lives of over 32 individuals and leaving dozens injured. It has also led to the destruction of infrastructure and the property of citizens. Despite the known and specific locations of the enemy, the attacks have been directly aimed at civilians who are guilty only of living in the city and lacking the ability to flee to safer areas.

This bombardment aims to systematically destroy civilian lives in a retaliatory manner, targeting specific social groups in an attempt to erase them from existence. This extreme approach reflects the brutality of the conflict parties. In the past, such crimes were committed in secrecy, but today, they are executed openly without any deterrent.

The General Coordination of Displaced Persons and Refugees strongly condemns these horrific massacres, acts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and ongoing crimes against humanity and war crimes. The actions perpetrated by both parties to the conflict—the Sudanese army through airstrikes and extrajudicial executions, and the Rapid Support Forces through artillery shelling and continuous attacks—confirm that this devastating war has created a tragic reality and introduced new terms into the Sudanese landscape, which will negatively impact community cohesion in the future.

We reiterate our appeal to all parties involved in the conflict to immediately cease hostilities and end the suffering of the citizens, prioritizing the interests of the nation and the community over narrow interests. We also call on the international community to take a firm and effective stance against these horrific crimes, exerting maximum pressure to stop the war and protect civilians, especially women and children who have been deprived of their most basic rights, such as healthcare and education. This was stated by Adam Rijal, the official spokesperson for the General Coordination of Displaced Persons and Refugees.

 

 

“Humanitarian Challenges: Emergency Room of the Southern Al hizam”

Khartoum: Sudan Sawa Sawa Network, January 6, 2025

The Emergency Room of the Southern Al hizam, located south of Khartoum, reported that the humanitarian situation in the Southern Al hizam has reached a critical juncture, deteriorating significantly due to the ongoing conflict between the warring parties in Sudan. This situation has had a direct impact on the livelihoods of citizens in the conflict zones.

The only glimmer of hope in the darkness of these forgotten areas came in December of last year when the region received its first shipment of humanitarian aid to enter the capital, Khartoum, supported by the World Food Programme (WFP) in coordination with the Emergency Room of Khartoum State and implemented by local emergency committees in their customary structure in the Jebel Awliya area and the Southern Al hizam Emergency Room across its various sectors.

The primary objective of this humanitarian aid was to assist those affected and provide food and supplies to the victims of the war in the areas controlled by the RSF. This aid significantly alleviated the suffering of the citizens in the Southern Al hizam, who had hoped for a continuation of this support on a monthly basis. However, their hopes were dashed after more than a month passed since the last shipment arrived without any follow-up assistance.

The Southern Al hizam area is currently suffering from severe shortages of food and supplies, exacerbated by the recent developments in the conflict between the warring parties near the capital, especially around Bahri and the Headquarter of the Army in central Khartoum. Most traders have become anxious and withdrawn much of their goods from the main and secondary markets serving the Southern Al hizam area, including the Central Market of Khartoum, Goro Market, Old and New Market 6, Lagalag Market, Al-Sahreeg Market, Grocery Market, and Abuja Market.

The complete closure of supply routes by the army for food materials from the northern regions, the Nile River area, and Eastern Sudan to the capital, Khartoum—specifically in RSF-controlled areas—has further complicated the situation.

This complex scenario has resulted in a severe shortage of essential food items that residents of the Southern Al hizam rely on for their daily sustenance, including flour, sugar, rice, lentils, and pasta While there are some legumes available from the Al Jazeera and Sennar regions, such as lentils and fava beans, the items listed above are primarily stored by traders who have exploited the current conditions by dramatically raising prices, making these goods unaffordable for low-income citizens.

In a similar vein, the issue of bread scarcity has rapidly escalated, as most bakeries have shut down due to the unavailability of baking flour (specifically, “baker’s flour”) The flour that remains in traders’ stores is now priced beyond reach.

Regarding the communal kitchens in the South Belt, they are divided into two sectors: the Nasr Sector and the Al-Azhari Sector. Kitchens in the Nasr Sector are operating regularly, supported by the World Food Programme (WFP), while those in the Al-Azhari Sector have been completely inactive for nearly a month due to the cessation of donor support and the lack of available alternatives to cover the shortfall.

As for the healthcare situation in the Southern Al hizam, it is alarmingly deteriorating. The only hospital serving the area, Bashair Hospital, is functioning only partially due to a strike declared by medical staff in response to an incident involving gunfire in the emergency department by a member of the RSF. This hospital previously provided free medical services to citizens, but doctors and volunteers have faced a series of assaults and ongoing pressures. Currently, the hospital’s operations are limited to the dialysis unit and nutritional support for children, pregnant women, and nursing mothers.

It is worth noting that after Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) withdrew from the hospital, the situation has become dire due to the departure of the majority of medical staff and a decrease in the stock of medications. The hospital has faced successive crises; at the beginning of this week, the only ambulance serving the hospital was stolen. The following day, the backup generator was also taken, along with some supplies from the Emergency Room of the Southern Al hizam, which is based in one of the hospital’s buildings. All these incidents are a result of the prevailing security instability in the area.

In terms of services, conditions are at their worst. Electricity has been unavailable in the region for nearly a year. Water has also become scarce, forcing citizens to endure hardships to obtain it, often paying 10,000 Sudanese pounds for a barrel of water.

Additionally, communication and internet networks have been down for over a year. Citizens are now primarily reliant on Starlink services for communication, incurring high costs from their daily earnings to maintain connectivity. Moreover, many Starlink networks have ceased functioning due to recent developments, contributing to the scarcity affecting the region in all aspects.

 

 

“Reports”

Sudan: Sudan Sawa Sawa, January 31, 2025

The Sudanese Minister of Finance, Jibril Ibrahim, has instructed commercial banks not to reduce the amount of money withdrawals or allow any party to engage in cash trading, in order to avoid usurious transactions related to cash.

Additionally, the political mechanism of the “Taqaddum” coordination agreed during its official meeting to sever ties with entities and individuals insisting on forming a government in exile. “Taqaddum” reiterated its rejection of establishing a parallel government, emphasizing its steadfast position against war. The organization remains committed to the people and supports the democratic civilian transition alongside all Sudanese.

In recent days, Sudanese nationals returning from South Sudan following recent events have been accommodated at the police headquarters for several days. Their return process was facilitated through cooperation between the Sudanese embassy and the South Sudanese government, with 125 individuals arriving today. The repatriation flights will continue until all those wishing to return are accommodated.

Resistance committees in several areas have launched the hashtag “The Revolution Continues” after a video surfaced of the Baraka battalions mocking the revolution in one of the capital’s streets. Revolutionaries have affirmed that their position has been clear from the beginning, stating that the current war aims to eradicate the ideas and aspirations of the December Revolution, necessitating public awareness of this fact.

Teachers in Kassala State have announced an open strike until all their salaries are paid, due to non-payment of their wages. According to the Kassala Teachers’ Committee, they had no option but to strike.

Today, the “Return to Education” initiative was launched in the Hall of Peace in the Red Sea State (Port Sudan), under the supervision of the state governor. This initiative, launched by Mr. Said Abu Al-Hassan, aims to eliminate the phenomenon of child homelessness, in collaboration with the Sudanese Coalition Company and UNICEF.

The Public Prosecution in Sudan has leveled serious charges against leaders of the “Progress” movement, with some of these charges reaching the level of requesting the death penalty, particularly against “Abdullah Hamdok.” Among the mentioned charges are numbers 190, 50, 130, and 167. In a related context, the court has issued a request to Interpol for a Red Notice against the accused. The accused consider these actions as an attempt to abort the revolution for which the youth sacrificed their lives, without reaping its rewards due to these policies and false accusations.

The Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, has called on the Sudanese authorities to disclose the whereabouts of the ousted President Omar Bashir, Ahmed Haroun, and Abdel-Raouf Mohammed Hussein, in preparation for holding them accountable before the United Nations Security Council, which has expressed its full support for the court’s request, indicating that impunity has contributed to the continuation of crimes and violations in Sudan.

In the context of the ongoing events, Sudanese military aircraft have launched airstrikes on the “Manawashi” area in South Darfur, targeting citizens’ homes, resulting in the destruction of homes and property amid the difficult conditions they are facing due to the ongoing war.

The World Food Programme has reported that more food aid is on its way to the city of “Wad Madani” in the Al-Jazira State, with the possibility of providing further support to the Sudanese people if safe passage can be assured. Aid has already been delivered to over 50,000 people in recent weeks.

This week, North Darfur and its neighboring areas witnessed severe violations against civilians in the Brosh and West Darfur regions. Rapid Support Forces targeted the “Abushok” camp, resulting in the deaths of 11 people and injuries to others. The emergency room at the camp confirmed that these crimes persisted throughout the week.

Additionally, the Rapid Support Forces launched attacks on the “Saudi” hospital in El Fasher, causing significant harm to lives and health service centers. This hospital is among the few that provide services to all residents of the state, severely disrupting healthcare delivery.

The Sudanese Doctors Network expressed deep concern in a statement regarding reports of the Chadian government deporting Sudanese refugees back to Sudan amid ongoing military operations along the border between the two countries. They called on international organizations to intervene urgently to halt these deportations and provide necessary protection in refugee camps.

The Umma Party has launched a new initiative aimed at ending the war in Sudan through direct negotiations under the supervision of a national body supported by popular consensus, national direction, and regional and international support. This initiative emphasizes national reconciliation to heal wounds and secure national unity, proposing a new vision for civil transition based on consensual legitimacy followed by electoral legitimacy grounded in the principle of popular mandate, particularly in these challenging times.

“Reports of Killings, Rape, and Arbitrary Arrests in the Funo Ain Sero Region of North Darfur”

Sudan Sawa Sawa, January 1, 2025

Informed sources reported that on the Thursday morning of December 26, 2024, at around 4 AM, Sudanese army forces conducted an airdrop in the Funo area, west of Ain Sero in North Darfur.

Subsequently, forces affiliated with the Awakening Council carried out horrific attacks, raping 12 girls aged between 12 and 16, and arbitrarily arresting over 65 citizens, including two village leaders and six children. Additionally, four women and three men were killed. The detainees were taken with them, while eight members of local administrations were released in an effort to recover the missing crates. They are under threatened with an assault on Ain Sero if a sum of 2 trillion Sudanese pounds won’t be paid.
