Darfur camp closed for 1 week due to \u2018constant attacks\u2019"},"content":{"rendered":"

Displaced living in Zam Zam near El-Fasher in North Darfur are complaining the camp has been closed for one week due to constant attacks by pro-government militias and Central Reserve Forces (known as Abu Tira).<\/p>\n

Assaults began on 5 February at the camp when Abu Tira forces reportedly looted eight shops and fired random shots in the air in and outside the camp.<\/p>\n

Sources told Radio Dabanga they believed the incursion was in retaliation of the murder of two of their forces by \u201cunknown gunmen\u201d at a water station earlier that day.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Radio Dabanga on Tuesday, 12 February, Zam Zam\u2019s residents urged North Darfur\u2019s government to immediately resolve the problem and provide them protection.<\/p>\n

This way, they stressed, shops can reopen and the displaced can continue with their regular activities.<\/p>\n
