Doctors Without Borders has reported that Sudanese refugees fleeing escalating violence in the Darfur region and heading to eastern Chad are facing “harsh conditions,” with limited access to basic services such as water and healthcare.
According to the organization, around 40,000 Sudanese refugees have arrived since the end of April at the “Ten Transit Camp,” most of them coming from the city of El Fasher and nearby displacement camps.
Ten camp serves as a key transit point to other refugee camps near the Sudanese border in eastern Chad, where Doctors Without Borders is expanding its aid efforts in response to the growing number of arrivals.
The organization stated that among the newly arrived refugees are individuals suffering from malnutrition and deep psychological distress caused by the horrific violence in North Darfur and along the routes leading to Chad
