People who are still present in El Geneina are unable to leave because the town is almost entirely besieged since Wednesday. West Darfur doctors compare the situation in the region with the Rwandan genocide of 1994.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The number of dead has risen to more than 1,100. More than 2,100 people have been wounded in el Geneina, local activists told Radio Dabanga yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/darfur-renewed-attacks-on-el-geneina-chaos-in-kutum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">On Wednesday<\/a>, large groups of gunmen, supported by paramilitaries of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) renewed their attacks on the already mauled city. The attacks, looting, and burning continued until Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMost parts of El Geneina are now besieged by these gunmen and the RSF,\u201d one of the sources said, and added that \u201csnipers have been deployed in the city as well, while government forces and police are nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the residents of El Geneina and the surrounding camps for the displaced fled their homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat is happening in West Darfur is more than a humanitarian disaster,\u201d the sources each said. \u201cThe water supply, electricity and communication services have entirely broken down. No hospital or other health facility is working anymore, while El Geneina has run out of most of the essential medicines and foodstuffs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A large number of the wounded needed urgent surgical intervention, which led to the conversion of a number of homes into operating rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sources further pointed to the widespread spread of measles, malaria, and cholera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/inconceivable-suffering-in-west-darfur\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Five days ago<\/a>, the deputy governor of West Darfur declared the death toll to have reached at least 850. \u201cThe magnitude of suffering is inconceivable in El Geneina.

Mosquitoes are spreading as the rains continue, and sheets to cover themselves are unavailable, \u201clet alone mosquito nets\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They pointed to the difficulty of aid organisations to reach them in the newly established reception centres due to the rainfall and rough roads and rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authorities in eastern Chad have opened a temporary camp in Abdi, about five kilometres from the West Darfur town of Beida, to offer shelter to the new refugees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The camp is now home to more than 25,000 new refugees living in dire humanitarian conditions. The people are awaiting deportation to a new camp set up in the vicinity of Abdi, on the road between Ab\u00e9ch\u00e9 and Goz Be\u00efda.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sws_supernormalaction\"><button
