No new displacements reported in the past week

  • Background

Armed clashes in areas close to Dar Al Salam village in the Dar Al Salam locality and in the Jebel Mara locality in February, March and April resulted in displacement of civilian populations to Zamzam. Clashes in Tabit and neighboring locations in North Darfur in the first half of February also caused displacements from Tabit, Sheria, and Negeha to Dar Al Salam, and from Tabit, Tukamari, Sortony and Shangil Tobay locations to Tawila and Zamzam.

Newly displaced households from the Hashaba and Tangarara area reported in Tawila (Rwanda - 41; Dali -1,025 and Argo -118) at the end of March are awaiting verification.

Newly displaced households in Dar Al Salam Town, Sortony and Galab villages reported by OCHA in early April, are awaiting verification.

Populations displaced in Umm Dereasayi as a result of armed clashes in the Jebel Mara Locality in March are pending verification.
