The United Nations warns that the situation on the ground in Al Fasher is ‘catastrophic’.

According to the UN, more than 62,000 people fled Al Fasher for the nearby town of Tawila between Sunday and Wednesday.

Aid agencies are concerned about the fate of thousands of civilians who are reported to have fled Al Fasher but have not yet arrived in Tawila.

Accounts of mass killings, rape, and other abuses continue to emerge, since the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces took control of North Darfur’s capital, Al Fasher, on Sunday.
