Additional Information / Shotlist Zamzam camp, by now largely destroyed, is reportedly under RSF control. Hundreds of thousands of people have fled to El Fasher, the neighboring capital city, where they remain trapped, out of reach of humanitarian aid and exposed to ongoing attacks and further mass violence. Over 100,000 people according to the UN reached Tawila where overwhelmed MSF teams are currently expanding activities to cope with the most pressing medical needs. The new arrivals are often severely malnourished, dehydrated and traumatized. 779 wounded have been received with gunshot and blast injuries, including 187 severe cases. An existing measles outbreak in Tawila is threatening to spiral out of control with the new massive influx of children who had very little access to vaccination and healthcare.
