Reports: Illuminating Sudan’s Realities

“Death of Rapid Support Forces Commander Ahmed Barakah Allah in Nyala”

South Darfur: Sudan Sawa Sawa, April 14, 2025

On April 12, the popular market in the city of Nyala witnessed a state of security unrest, as reported by a correspondent from Sudan Sawa Sawa. These tensions arose from statements issued by the Rapid Support Forces police a week earlier regarding weapons collection and wanted individuals, which were carried out in a neighborhood of the city.

According to local sources for Sudan Sawa Sawa, amidst these events, a soldier from the Rapid Support Forces, belonging to the Beni Halba tribe, expressed his frustration over the confiscation of his weapon and demanded its return. The tribe’s elders requested the presence of his commander and relevant authorities, but the soldier erupted in anger and resorted to violence. According to statements from the Rapid Support Forces commander, a shot was fired at the first victim, Ahmed Abassiya, who was taken to the hospital for treatment.

Shortly thereafter, his death was announced, leading members of the Beni Halba tribe to gather and target the police station in Nyala South, where violent clashes erupted between the two sides that lasted for an hour and a half, resulting in dozens of casualties among both civilians and military personnel.

Rapid Support Forces Commander Ahmed Barakah Allah arrived, waving a white flag in an attempt to mediate between the parties. However, while trying to convey his message, he was shot in the chest, leading to his swift death. Markets remain closed, and the security situation remains unstable.

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. This air drop included four crates filled with weapons, ammunition, military uniforms, and cash.

On Sunday, December 29, Sheikh Musa Hilal, the chairman of Revolutionary Awakening Council arrived in Funo area from the Um Qura area, known as “Jena” in Dar Srif, accompanied by 25 vehicles belonging to the Revolutionary Awakening Council, as well as two vehicles from the Rapid Support Forces led by Hamid Abdul-Rasoul. The Sheikh Musa spoke with the village residents, confirming that these supplies belonged to the Awakening Council and were state-sponsored.

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.
