The Saudi Shiryan El Hayah organisation on Saturday provided food and drinks for the breaking of the fast for 5,000 residents of El Salam camp in South Darfur. HAC officials told the newly displaced at the camp that the distribution of food rations will begin next week.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Radio Dabanga from El Salam camp, Sheikh Mahjoub Adam Tabaldiya said that the Saudi Shiryan El Hayah started on Saturday with the provision of Ramadan breakfast to 3,000 women and 2,000 men at the camp. The organisation will continue providing breakfast until the end of Ramadan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey daily slaughter five oxen. Apart from the food and drinks, they also provide the displaced with dates and dishes of balila beans, special requirements for breaking the fast.\u201d Tabaldiya stressed that the collective breakfast pleases the new and old displaced, \u201cwho barely have something to break the fast with\u201d.<\/p>\n

Sheikh Tabaldiya said that El Salam camp\u2019s newly displaced, totaling 6,387, have not received aid since they arrived at the camp four months ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Wednesday, we asked officials of the Sudanese Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC) about the reasons for the delay in the food rations’ distribution, after the registration by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) of the newly displaced was finally completed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe HAC officials told us that the IOM on Wednesday submitted the names of the newly displaced to the World Food Programme, which, they said, will start with the distribution of food next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
