UN raises alarm over atrocities in Sudan’s Zamzam camp takeover

Aid officials are extremely concerned about an escalating Sudan war following reports of atrocities in the take over of the Zamzam displacement camp in North Darfur by armed groups, UN humanitarians said.  

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said it is gravely



concerned by the humanitarian situation in and around El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur State, just 15 km north of the vast and famine-scarred camp.

“Local partners have provided deeply disturbing reports of atrocities following the reported takeover of Zamzam displacement camp by armed groups,” OCHA said.
