Corpses Strewn Along the Road Between El-Fashir and Tawila

Activists called on human rights organizations on Monday to intervene to bury dozens of bodies scattered along the El Fasher-Tawila road in North Darfur.

People fleeing El Fasher are using this route to move to Tawila locality, which is under the control of the Sudan Liberation Movement led by Abdul Wahid Mohamed Nour. The locality is home to more than half a million displaced people living in dire humanitarian conditions.

The Abu Shouk camp emergency Chamber said, in a statement, that it is appealing to human rights organizations to urgently intervene to bury dozens of bodies scattered along the road between El Fasher and Tawila.

It noted that these bodies belong to people who died from various causes, including “thirst, hunger, premeditated murder, illness, lost travel, and other causes.” It added, “The scattering of bodies along the road is a growing phenomenon that requires urgent intervention.”
