The sheikh of Dreige camp in South Darfur has disclosed that a total of 5,736 people have arrived at the site within less than one month. They have fled clashes between rebels and government forces as well as tribal hostilities between the Gimr and Beni Halba, he said.<\/p>\n

These people reached the camp between 12 April and 5 May. Dreige\u2019s sheikh stressed the number, which amounts to 1,277 families, does not include the people who arrived at the camp on Monday. It also only includes the people arriving in Dreige, not those arriving at El Salam, Attash and Kalma.<\/p>\n

\u201cDisplaced persons are coming here from south of Nyala and Jogma in South Darfur; Muhajeriya and Labado in Central Darfur; and even from Dabai in Central Darfur,\u201d the sheikh said.<\/p>\n

The Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC) has ordered food, water, sanitation and medical tools and tarpaulins for the new arrivals in Dreige via the World Food Programme.<\/p>\n
