Thousands Displaced Due to South Darfur Attacks
Following the series of attacks by armed militias in south Darfur, an estimated 55,000 people fled, leaving most of their belongings behind.
The attacks caused Christian Aid partners, the Sudan Development Association (SUDO) and the Sudanese Council of Churches (SCC) to abandon their schools and health centres in the camps in Mershing in the region. Currently, the two organisations are providing blankets, sleeping mats and jerry cans and are ensuring that people have access to water and sanitation facilities to prevent the outbreak of disease.
