A devastating landslide in Sudan’s Darfur region has left over 1,000 people dead, with only one survivor reported by the Sudan Liberation Movement/Army (SLM). The tragedy occurred in the village of Tarasin in the Marra Mountains area after heavy rains caused a “massive” landslide, flattening the entire village. The rebel group controlling the region has appealed for international aid to recover the bodies and assist the survivors.
The Sudanese government has also requested assistance from the United Nations to address the aftermath of the disaster. However, access to the affected area is challenging due to bad weather conditions and ongoing conflict in the region. The UN is mobilizing support to provide aid to the survivors and help recover the bodies of the deceased.
The landslide in Sudan’s Darfur region highlights the vulnerability of communities in remote areas to natural disasters exacerbated by climate change. The need for sustainable development and disaster preparedness measures is crucial to mitigate the impact of such events in the future.
The global community must come together to support the people of Sudan in this time of crisis and provide the necessary resources to address the immediate needs of the survivors and the families of the victims. The humanitarian response to this tragedy will be crucial in ensuring the well-being and recovery of the affected population.
