Higher prices caused the increase of transportation and travel costs, to and from Khartoum, and between capitals of states and localities. The rain season has also caused higher prices. Citizens of the Darfur States have demanded a quick intervention from government authorities. They ask the authorities to ease high prices, especially now that the month of Ramadan (starting August 1) is nearing. The majority of the region&#8217;s inhabitants is poor, and many people are already weak as a result of their displacement, homelessness and unemployment.<!--break-->Prices have risen about 25 percent, and this increase still continues. A citizen of El Geneina reported the following (current) prices to Radio Dabanga:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Sugar 250 pounds\/sack<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Millet 180 pounds\/bag <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Oil  200 pounds\/4 gallons<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Beef  20 pounds\/kilo<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Charcoal 30 pounds\/bag<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Soap 100 pounds\/box gallons of <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Petrol 25 pounds\/gallon <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">Gasoline 20 pounds\/gallon&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);\">A group, combating higher prices in Khartoum, issued a statement, on Wednesday. They call for a  boycott on meat purchases, and they urge the people of Sudan to stand united, as they fight high prices. This group says that commodity prices rise every hour, and that there seems to be no one keeping track of the price situation. The group presses for a greater sense of civic duty among all Sudanese,<\/span> to stop manipulation, and for greater unity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sws_supernormalaction\"><button on=\"tap:superwebshare-lightbox\" class=\"superwebshare_normal_button1 superwebshare-button-large superwebshare-button-square superwebshare_prompt superwebshare_button_svg\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color: #d52631;\" ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"superwebshare-svg\"  fill=\"currentColor\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"0\"><path stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" d=\"M789.86,323.67c91.79,0,164.25-72.46,164.25-164.25S881.64,0,789.86,0S625.6,72.46,625.6,164.25c0,4.83,0,14.49,0,24.15L306.76,371.98c-24.15-24.15-57.97-33.82-96.62-33.82c-91.79,0-164.25,72.46-164.25,164.25s72.46,164.25,164.25,164.25c38.65,0,72.46-14.49,96.62-33.82L625.6,821.26c0,9.66,0,14.49,0,19.32c0,86.96,72.46,159.42,159.42,159.42s159.42-72.46,159.42-159.42s-67.63-159.42-154.59-159.42c-33.82,0-67.63,9.66-96.62,33.82L374.4,526.57c0-9.66,0-19.32,0-24.15s0-14.49,0-24.15l318.84-188.41C717.39,314.01,751.21,323.67,789.86,323.67z\" \/><\/svg><span>Share article<\/span><\/button><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prices of food and fuel are soaring in the three states of Darfur, merchants made clear in a poll with Radio Dabanga.
