A deadly landslide in Sudan’s Darfur region has wiped out an entire village, killing more than 1,000 people and leaving only one survivor, according to the Sudan Liberation Movement/Army.
The landslide struck on 31 August after days of heavy rain in the Marra Mountains of western Sudan, the rebel group led by Abdelwahid Mohamed Nour said in a statement.
The SLM/A, which controls the area, reported that the village was completely destroyed and appealed to the United Nations and international aid groups to help recover the bodies of men, women, and children buried beneath the rubble.
Residents had fled ongoing clashes between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in North Darfur, seeking refuge in the Marra Mountains where food and medicine are already scarce.
