The area of Tiga El Tom, east of El Daein in South Darfur, has experienced a severe water crisis over the past two months. The situation is attributed to the continuous breakdown of the water pump in the area. The price of a bottle of water has reached two and a half pounds. A resident of the area told Radio Dabanga that the citizens stand in long line for hours starting from early in the morning near the pump and said that some of them return during the middle of the day without getting even a drop of water because of the repeated failure of the pump.

The resident urged the government of South Darfur and humanitarian organizations to intervene to provide alternative lasting water sources to the area that is facing thirst.
