During the past four months, eight displaced women have been raped in Kabkabiya locality, North Darfur.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Radio Dabanga, the Secretary for Women Issues of the six Kabkabiya camps said that eight women, three of them minors, were raped in the past four months. \u201cThey were attacked and raped while they were collecting firewood or tending their farmlands.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Secretary noted that not only the women in the Kabkabiya are mentally affected by the rapes. \u201cIt is difficult for all of us to live with the idea that our women are prone to rapes, quite often even gang-rapes.\u201d<\/p>\n

She appealed via Radio Dabanga to the UN and the international community to \u201curgently intervene, and protect the women in Darfur, and in particular the displaced women, against these physical and psychological assaults\u201d.<\/p>\n
