Artikel zur Flucht einer schwangeren Frau aus En Nahud, Bundesstaat Westkordofan, nach Einnahme der Stadt durch Rapid Support Forces (RSF)

A pregnant woman's diary of escape from war zone: 'I prayed the baby wouldn't come' (Medienbericht, Englisch)

• Artikel zur Flucht einer schwangeren Frau aus En Nahud, Bundesstaat Westkordofan, nach Einnahme der Stadt durch Rapid Support Forces (RSF)
• Article on escape of a pregnant woman from En Nahud, West Kordofan State, after the city was captured by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF)
• The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) had just seized the city where she was living - En Nahud in the state of West Kordofan. The road out was dangerous, but she felt she had no choice. She was seven months pregnant. "There were no hospitals anymore, no pharmacies," she said, "and I was afraid if I stayed longer, I wouldn't find any vehicles heading out. […] The army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan appointed a committee earlier this year to investigate alleged abuses during the military's sweep through central Sudan. Kordofan, made up of three states, has now become the main battleground. The region is critically important to Sudan's war, as the site of key oil fields, and a strategic centre of major transportation routes. […] "If the RSF men hear you - like if you watch an army video, or play an army ringtone or song, or even just mention the Rapid Support Forces casually in a conversation - they'll arrest you." Road conditions were terrible, and the vehicles kept breaking down - three times during the course of the journey. […] "But when the Rapid Support Forces came, they were not any better. They loot, they rape. They do no less than what the army does. They are all the same." Despite widespread evidence of looting and allegations of rape, the RSF also says it does not target civilians. It has dismissed charges of ethnic cleansing, describing the violence as tribal conflicts.
