The UN has been warning for weeks that atrocities similar to those committed during the paramilitary assault on the Darfur city of El-Fasher in October last year could be repeated in El-Obeid. The UN’s World Food Programme said El-Obeid’s population had all but doubled, though it was only able to feed a fraction of them. Main category: Middle East Tags: Sudan Unrest El-Obeid WFP
