Life at Displacement Camps As Civilians Flee Violence in Darfur

TAWILA, NORTH DARFUR, SUDAN. February 22, 2026: A 28-year-old mother of three from El Fasher stands outside her tent four months after fleeing the city following an attack. She says she was detained by Rapid Support Forces fighters for 24 hours before escaping after what she describes as a brutal assault. Survivors and aid groups report widespread attacks on women and girls during the 2025 violence, which drove mass displacement and left many women leading households in the camps.
