[1/5] Sudanese refugees who have fled the violence in their country gather to receive food supplements from World Food Programme (WFP), near the border between Sudan and Chad, in Koufroun, Chad April 28, 2023.
Residents and sources in the western Darfur region have reported looting, ethnic reprisal attacks and clashes between the army and the RSF which evolved from the janjaweed militias.
"In our village, armed people came and burned and looted houses and we were forced to flee," said Adam.
I cut the child's umbilical cord and we cleaned her up," Adam's sister Souraya Adam, 27, told Reuters.
The wave of arrivals places an additional burden on Chad's meagre resources, which were already strained by hosting 400,000 refugees who fled earlier conflict in Sudan.
