Child killed, refugees injured in a Sudanese refugee camp in Chad by gunmen

A child was killed and several refugees were injured in a Sudanese refugee camp in eastern Chad by gunmen.

Sources told Darfur 24 that gunmen raided the home of a Sudanese refugee inside Abu Tenge camp and attempted to ransack his belongings at gunpoint.

The sources indicated that the movements of neighbors prompted the gunmen to open fire, killing a child and wounding two others.

The sources stated that the perpetrators were able to flee the camp, and a criminal case has been filed against unknown individuals.

This incident came amid escalating plundering and security breaches in Abu Tenge camp, which has become increasingly unstable.

Sudanese refugees in Chad complain of insecurity in the camps and food shortages.
