This Sunday, a committee of Sudanese people called for food donations to survive in a country devastated by more than three months of bloody war between the army and paramilitaries.
Due to the fighting, especially in the capital city of Khartoum, millions of residents are trapped at home, and some of them do not have access to water, especially in the suburbs of Khartoum Nord, where there are only power outages.
According to residents, there is not enough food, so the capital’s district committee issued an “urgent appeal” to the population on Sunday.
“We must support each other, give food and money to those around us,” the al-Danakla committee wrote.
Abbas Mohammed Babiker, a resident of North Khartoum, told AFP that the family had to limit themselves to one meal a day.
“With the fighting, there is no longer a market and, in any case, we no longer have money,” added another resident, Essam Abbas.
Salaries of civil servants, for example, have not been paid since March, according to AFP.
Since April 15, air strikes by the army under the command of General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and artillery and drones of the Rapid Support Forces (FSR) of General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo have killed 3,900 people and 3.3 million displaced people and refugees, according to a new report from the non-governmental organization Acled, according to a new report from the non-governmental organization Acled.
Before the war, one in three Sudanese were already starving, and today more than half of Sudan’s 48 million people need humanitarian aid to survive.
