"Fleeing the war between the Sudanese army and paramilitary ‘rapid response forces’ in North Darfur state, people sought refuge in the Marra Mountains, where food and medicine are scarce. Two years of civil war have left more than half the population on the brink of starvation and millions of people displaced from their homes. The capital of North Darfur state, El Fasher, continues to be under constant shelling," the Sudan People's Liberation Army said.
