Reports indicate that specific ethnic groups were targeted and that fleeing civilians were prevented from leaving the camp\u2014following the same pattern used in the attacks on El Geneina and Adr\u00e9 in West Darfur in June 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The ministry further stated that RSF fighters had burned down camp markets, destroyed food and water storage facilities, and forced primary healthcare centers to withdraw.<\/p>\n<p>It also highlighted a recent report by the World Food Programme (WFP), which revealed that the RSF had held up food convoys bound for Zamzam for weeks before forcibly redirecting them.
