As the armed conflict continues, the number of casualties in and around Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, continues to increase, shortages of water, food and medicine and other essential materials for daily life have intensified, and the living conditions of the local people have been deteriorating. As a result, many Sudanese have been forced to move to neighboring countries, but their journey to refuge has been difficult due to the instability.
In the border area between Sudan and neighboring Chad, large numbers of Sudanese who have just fled the fighting stop here. In a hurry away from home and without enough supplies, they face a difficult situation of lack of water and food.
Omar, Sudanese: Security is not currently guaranteed in Sudan, and we fled from Sudan to Chad for security reasons. We left with nothing with us, neither food nor water. We need a lot of supplies now, and now everyone is very tired, and the people here are tormented and exhausted.
According to the United Nations, more than 10,000 Sudanese have moved to Chad. At the same time, many Sudanese people choose to go all the way north, after thousands of kilometers of travel, to neighboring Egypt to escape the war.
Compared with those who have left the country successfully, a large number of Sudanese who are still on the way to refuge are depressed and do not know where to go.
Dalia, Sudan: We just managed to escape from Khartoum, and we're currently in Port Sudan, in eastern Sudan, and we're thinking about where to go next. I am both angry and frustrated by the situation I am experiencing.
Many Sudanese still stranded in and around Khartoum say the conflict is ongoing and they are running out of food and water. At the same time, due to fuel shortages and rising ticket prices, it is currently difficult for them to escape from home.
Bander, a resident of Khartoum: At the beginning of the conflict, on the first or second day, we bought some food from a nearby supermarket, but it is now depleted. In fact, the same is true of our water use, and we need to go out and find water between conflicts.
