Nocturnal attacks cause panic in Zamzam camp

Yesterday night, from ten o’clock until the early hours of today, the Zamzam camp near El Fasher was subjected to gun attacks. Witnesses told Radio Dabanga that the attacks were carried out by forces of the central police reserves ‘Abu Tira’.

Witnesses told Radio Dabanga, that the noise of the blasts and firing, by both small and larger fire arms, caused intense panic and fear among the displaced. Especially, children and women were extremely distressed, and they sought shelter with family, throughout the night. A displaced person told Radio Dabanga, that they fear new violent outbursts, especially after the signing of the Doha Peace Agreement, which took place yesterday.
