'Barefoot with nothing': War-displaced Sudanese go hungry in refuge town

People who fled the Zamzam camp for the internally displaced after it fell under RSF control, rest in a makeshift encampment in an open field near the town of Tawila in war-torn Sudan's western Darfur region on April 13, 2025.[AFP]
