HUDO Centre More information Since 15th April 2023, there is a military confrontation (fighting) between SAF and RSF in Khartoum and other states. This caused a lot of damage amongst civilians, thousands were killed, injuries and many people were displaced. West Darfur State is the most affected with less focus and intervention from national and international communities. The people in Darfur have not benefited/experienced any of the announced series of cease fire. Al Geneina is the capital city of West Darfur State located at the western border of Sudan with Chad. Habilla town is capital of Habilla locality in West Darfur State at a distance of about 55 km north east Al Geneina town. Mesteri is a village along the border with Chad in a distance of approximately 45 km south west Al Geneina town. The invasion on Al Geneina started from east, west and south directions of the town. After the first two weeks the attacks been in intervals and it caused internal displacement. The most affected neighbourhoods of the south and southwest parts of the town; Elthowra, Eltadamoun, Hai Elmajles, Alzuhur, Elmadares, AlJamarek, Alsafia, Murabaa 8, Murabaa 19 and Jebel (squares 2, 3 and 7) among others. The residents of these neighbourhoods have been displaced to north and east of the town at neighbourhoods of; Hai Alsalam, Alkefah, Elreyad, Elemtedad, Elnaseem, Elshadei, Elrahma, Ardimata and East the Wadi. During the month of May attacks, the Massalit community leader/ Sultan’s house was attacked, looted and one of the princes was kidnapped for some hours. The distance between Al Geneina and the nearest town in Chad is only twenty seven (27) km with three road connecting the two towns (Al Geneina and Adre) however, currently the RSF and militia have established about six checkpoints on each road targeting the fleeing civilians from African ethnicity in particular Massalit. This hinders civilians from seeking refuge or transport the injured people. Health Status in Al Geneina: The hospital was looted completely even the patients’ beds, the building was partially destroyed, ambulance vehicles were looted. Other health centres, private clinics and pharmacies were looted. According to the humanitarian aid commissioner in West Darfur State; the West Darfur government (the governor) has made patients referral arrangement with Adre town of Chad however, they are not able to transport them because of insecurity along the roads. Some of the medical personnel have taken the initiative of creating emergency hospital using some houses however they are lacking medicines and equipment to use. Also some people resorted to treat their injured relatives using traditional methods like use of herbs. All the registered sixty seven (67) renal failure patients who were under dialysis died since there was no follow up and hospital collapse. Water source; all the estimated number of Al Geneina citizens (above half million) rely on two hand pumps only and couldn’t use the local wells in the Wadi (seasonal river) because of snipers. The affected rights: Security of persons and their properties  Articles (4 & 6) of African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights  Article (3) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
