Resident Sayed Yahya told to Radio Dabanga that the situation in the city is dire, with \u201csignificant displacement from the affected eastern neighbourhoods towards safer areas within the city and from the city\u2019s southern region outward. \u201cThe displaced sought refuge with relatives, acquaintances, and in public squares.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
