Women are sitting in a handle of frustration in a community kitchen in the city of Sudani, who surrounds L-Fasher.
“Our children are dying before our eyes,” one of them tells the BBC.
“We don’t know what to do. They are innocent. They have nothing with the army or [its paramilitary rival] Rapid support force. It is worse than our pain that you can imagine. ,
Food in L-Fasher is so rare that prices have increased to the point where the money used to cover a week’s price can now buy only one. International aid organizations have condemned the ignorance of starvation as “a weapon of war”.
The hunger crisis is complicated by a bounce of cholera through squalid camps of people displaced by the fight.
Medical Charity Doctors Bidout Borders (MSF) said on Thursday that Sudan is experiencing the country’s worst cholera outbreak, which has been seen over the years, fuel from the ongoing civil war. There have been about 100,000 cases and 2,470 deaths in the last one year, said, L-Fasher with the current subscription.
The BBC has still received rare footage of trapped people in the city, sent to us by a local worker and has been shot by a freelance cameraman.
The Sudani Army has been struggling with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for more than two years, when their commanders jointly staged the coup, and then fell out.
L-Fasher in the Western Darfur region is one of the most cruel boundaries in conflict.
The paramilitary tightened their 14-month blockade after losing control over Capital Khartum earlier this year, and carried forward their fight for the last foothills of the armed forces in Darfur. The fight increased in this week The city is still one of the most intense RSF attacks.
In the north and center of the country, where the army has wrestled the area back from the RSF, food and medical aid have started to make a dent between civil victims.
But the situation in the struggle areas of western and southern Sudan is frustrated.
Later last month, in the Matbakh-al-Khair communal kitchen in L-Fasher, volunteers converted Ambaz into a porridge. This is the remains of peanuts after the oil is extracted, normally fed to animals.
Sometimes it is possible to find sorbet or millet, but the day of filming, the kitchen manager says: “There is no flour or roti.”
“Now we have reached the point of Ambaz food. God can give us relief from this disaster, nothing is left in the market to buy,” they say.
The United Nations has extended its appeal to allow its appeal to a human halt for a human stagnation to allow food convoy to the city, its Sudan messenger Sheldon Yet has once more demanded this week that warnings inspect their obligations under international law.
The army has approved trucks to move forward but the United Nations is still waiting for the official term from the paramilitary group.
RSF advisors have stated that they believe that the Truses will be used to facilitate the delivery of food and ammunition for the “surrounded militia” of the army inside L-Fasher.
He has also claimed a paramilitary group and was setting up a “safe route” for its associate citizens to leave the city.
RSF has issued a statement that denied comprehensive allegations that he was targeting citizens in L-Fasher, claiming that local armed groups in the city were using citizens as a human shield.
For the residents of the city, the fight is to survive during the bombing and what food they can eat.
Local respondents can get some emergency cash through the digital banking system, but it does not go too far.
“The markets have exploded in the markets,” says Maithilde Wu, advocate manager of the Norwegian Refugee Council.
“Today, $ 5,000 [£3,680] Includes a meal for 1,500 people in a single day. Three months ago, the same amount could feed them for a whole week. ,
Doctors say People are dying of malnutritionIt is impossible to know how many reports were quoted by a regional health officer – a report last week.
Hospitals cannot face. Some are still working. They have been damaged by shelling and both lack medical supply to help stay hungry, and who have been injured in continuous bombing.
“We have many malnourished children who have been hospitalized, but unfortunately there is not a single pouch [therapeutic food]Dr. Ibrahim Abdullah Khatar, a pediatrician at Al Saudi Hospital, says that the ward currently has medical complications even five seriously malnourished children.
“They are just waiting for their death,” they say.
When the hunger crisis collides, people who usually die first are the weakest, at least healthy or suffering from pre -existing conditions.
“The situation, it is very pathetic, it’s very frightening,” the doctor tells us in a voice message.
“L-Fasher’s children are dying on a daily basis due to lack of food, lack of drug. Unfortunately, the international community is simply watching.”
International non-governmental organizations working in Sudan issued a necessary statement Announcing this week that “a deliberate strategy is displayed to break the civil population through hunger, fear and exhaustion in the targeting of continuous attacks, help in assistance and important infrastructure”.
He said that “the actual report of recent food hoardings for military use combines the pain of citizens”.
Organizations said, “There is no safe route outside the city, in which the roads are blocked and which are trying to withstand attacks, due to taxation, community-based discrimination and death on the outposts,” said the organizations.
Hundreds of thousands of people fled in recent months, on the banks of L-Fashar, in the camp of several displaced persons of several zamzam, were seized by the RSF in April.
They reach Tawila, a city to 60 km to the west of the city, with weak and dehydrated, Violence and forced recovery with road From RSF-Allied groups.
Life is safe in crowded camps, but they are surrounded by disease – the deadliest of all: cholera, due to polluted water. Outbreak starts with the destruction of the infrastructure of water and lack of food and medical care, and the rainy season causes floods.
This is caused by polluted water and hundreds of people have died in Sudan, which has begun due to the destruction of the infrastructure of the water and lack of food and medical care, and the floods have deteriorated due to the rainy season.
Unlike L-Fasher, Tawila aid workers have minimal access, but their supply is limited, John Joseph Ochebi, called on-site project coordinator for a group, called The Alliance for International Medical Action.
“We have a shortage [washing facilities]In terms of medical supply, to be able to deal with this situation, “he tells the BBC.” We are gathering resources to see how the best we can be able to answer. ,
MSF’s Project Coordinator Sylvan Penicaud estimates that camps have only three liters of water per day per person, which says, “the way below the basic need, and forces people to get water from contaminated sources”.
Zubaid Ismail is lying in Ishaq Tent Clinic. She is seven months pregnant, gaunt and tired. His story is a story of the trauma mentioned by many people.
She tells us that when she had a little money before running away from L-Fasher, she used to do business.
Her husband was caught by armed people on Tawila’s road. Her daughter has a head injury.
Zubaid and his mother came with cholera soon after reaching the camp.
“We drink without boiled water,” she says. “We have no one to get water. Since coming here, I have nothing left.”
Back to L -Fashar we hear the appeal to help women clushed in soup kitchen – any kind of help.
“We are tired. We want this siege to be raised,” says Faiza Abkar Mohammed. “Even if they aircraft food, anything aircraft – we are completely tired.”
