In Sudan, the Al Gezira State has been suffering from horrific attacks that have killed and injured dozens of civilians, the majority of whom are women and children. These attacks also targeted homes and put people into collective displacement, leaving property behind in order to seek safety amidst dire humanitarian circumstances.

Human Loss and Psychological Impact

The people of Sudan have been subjected to endless catastrophes from nature and human catastrophes. From the disastrous flood in Madgery to the armed conflict in Al Gezira, it has been a series of direct attacks on citizens, which have caused serious injuries with very limited access to medical care. The most profound psychological trauma has been on children who have witnessed appalling scenes and are living in fear and horror.

Forced Displacement Amid Dire Living Conditions

These families have had to migrate for shelter in neighboring locations, leaving their homes and personal effects in search of safety. Their living standards have further been aggravated by the insufficiency of preparations in these host areas, characterized by limited access to basic needs like food, clean water, and lack of money.

Material Losses and Local Resource Destruction

Agriculture is the main livelihood of the people in Al Gezira, besides being reduced to ashes along with homes. All this has made survival in the area quite difficult because they have lost their primary means of support and sustenance for themselves and their families.
