Our journalists have managed to make it to the front line of the fighting close to the capital, Khartoum.Top UN officials have said the conflict has plunged the country into “one of the worst humanitarian nightmares in recent history” and could trigger the world’s largest hunger crisis.There are also fears that in Darfur, in the west of the country, a repeat of what the US called genocide 20 years ago may be beginning to unfold. WARNING: This article contains accounts of physical and sexual violenceAs if out of nowhere, a huge blast shakes the road in Omdurman. People scream and run in all directions, shouting: “Go back, go back, there’ll be another one.” Thick smoke blankets everything.Moments earlier, the battered street had been dotted with pedestrians picking up rice, bread and vegetables from the shops, which had only recently begun to re-open.In mid-February, the Sudanese army retook the city – one of three along the River Nile that form Sudan’s wider capital, Khartoum.Civilians have now started to return, but mortars, like the one that landed in the middle of this main street, still fall daily.For international media, gaining access to cover the civil war that erupted last April has been difficult – but the BBC has managed to get to the front line. Our team found the once-bustling heart of Omdurman transformed into a thinly inhabited wasteland.Image source, Dany Abi Khalil / BBCImage caption, Most of the vehicles driving on the damaged streets of Omdurman are militaryThe vicious power struggle between the country’s military and its former ally, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group, has killed at least 14,000 people across the country – possibly many more.For nearly a year, the army and the RSF have battled over Khartoum and the nearby cities.The RSF has taken control of areas south of the capital, as well as large swathes of Darfur, which has been in turmoil for years with violence between its various African and Arab communities.Women who escaped Darfur to neighbouring Chad have given the BBC accounts of being raped – sometimes multiple times – by militiamen. Men in the camps told us they had escaped street executions and abductions.Embedded on the front line with the army in Omdurman, the BBC team’s movements were carefully controlled – we had a minder with us and were not allowed to film military activity.The army fears information about its activities will be leaked.Image source, .When our cameraman begins filming the aftermath of the mortar explosion, armed men in civilian clothing surround him, one pointing a gun at his head.They turn out to be from military intelligence, but it’s a sign of how high tensions are.Despite the army’s recent gain in Omdurman, we can still hear exchanges of fire crackling around the area from time to time.Image source, Dany Abi Khalil / BBCImage caption, Stones and boards with numbers on mark burial sites on a patch of ground near a mosque in OmdurmanPart of the front line now runs along the Nile, which separates Khartoum on the eastern side from Omdurman, which is west of the river.The military tell us RSF snipers are stationed in apartment blocks across the water from Sudanese army positions at the badly damaged parliament building.Omdurman’s old market, once busy with locals and visitors, is in ruins, its shops looted bare. Most vehicles on the roads are military.More than three million people have fled Khartoum State in the past 11 months, but some Omdurman residents have refused to leave. Most we meet are elderly.Image source, Dany Abi Khalil / BBCImage caption, “It’s just me left,” says Mukhtar al-Badri Mohieddin, listing friends and acquaintances who are now buriedLess than a kilometre from the front line, Mukhtar al-Badri Mohieddin is walking with a stick near a mosque with a damaged minaret.The open space opposite is covered with makeshift graves – rough earth mounds marked with broken bricks, boards and concrete slabs.”There are 150 people here. I knew many of them, Mohamed, Abdullah… Jalal,” he says, pausing for a long moment before one name, Dr Youssef al-Habr, a well-known professor of Arabic literature. “It’s just me left,” he adds. The Sudanese military has been criticised for its heavy use of aerial bombing, including in civilian areas where RSF fighters hide out – though it says it takes “necessary precautions” to protect civilians.People here hold both sides responsible for the destruction in and around the capital.But many accuse the RSF of looting and attacks during the time it controlled the area.”They cleared the houses of belongings, they stole cars, TVs, they beat up old people, even women,” resident Muhammad Abdel Muttalib tells us.”People died of hunger, I pulled some of them out of their houses so the bodies wouldn’t rot inside,” he adds.He says it is “widely known” that women were raped in their homes and groped during security checks.Image source, Dany Abi Khalil / BBCImage caption, Afaf Muhammad Salem says RSF fighters looted her home and shot her brother in the legAfaf Muhammad Salem, in her late fifties, was living with her brothers in Khartoum when the war broke out.She says she moved across the river to Omdurman after they were attacked by RSF fighters, who she says looted their house and shot her brother in the leg.”They were beating up women and old men and threatening innocent girls,” she says.It is a veiled reference to sexual violence, which is a taboo topic in Sudan. “Insulting honour does more harm than taking money,” she adds.’A weapon of revenge’Victims of rape can face a lifetime of stigma and marginalisation from their own families and communities. Many people in Omdurman did not want to discuss the issue.But more than 1,000km (621 miles) to the west, in the sprawling refugee camps over the border in Chad, the volume of emerging testimonies of sexual violence is forcing a new, grim, level of openness.Image source, Marek Polaszewski / BBCImage caption, Hundreds of thousands of people have fled from Sudan into ChadAmina, whose name we have changed to protect her identity, has come to a temporary clinic run by the charity Médecins Sans Frontières, seeking an abortion. She greets us without looking up.The 19-year-old, who has fled from Darfur in Sudan, only found out she was pregnant the previous day. She desperately hopes her family will never know.”I’m not married and I was a virgin,” Amina says in faltering sentences.If you have been affected by any of the issues raised in this story you can visit BBC Action Line.In November, militiamen caught her, along with her aunt and cousins, as they were fleeing from their hometown of Ardamata to the nearby city of Geneina, she tells us.”The others escaped but they kept me for a whole day. There were two of them, and one raped me many times before I managed to escape,” she says.Image source, Marek Polaszewski / BBCImage caption, Amina desperately hopes her family will never know she sought an abortionThe RSF’s expanding domination in Darfur, supported by allied Arab militias, has brought with it a surge in ethnically driven attacks on the black African population, especially the Masalit ethnic group.Amina’s story is just one of many testimonies of attacks against civilians that happened around 4 November when the RSF and its allies seized a Sudanese military garrison in Ardamata.It follows violence earlier in the year – a recent UN report seen by the BBC says that more than 10,000 people are believed to have been killed in the area since last April.The UN has documented about 120 victims of conflict-related sexual violence across the country, which it says is “a vast under-representation of the reality”.It says men in RSF uniform and armed men affiliated with the group were reported to be responsible for more than 80% of the attacks. Separately, there have also been some reports of sexual assaults by the Sudanese military.Image source, .Just outside the same camp, which is in the border town of Adré, about 30 women and girls meet in a hut at midday.Pink and blue balloons hang from a string above their heads, along with handwritten notes. “Rape is not destiny; it is a practice that can be stopped,” one reads.Tears flow freely as the women speak of their experiences of both physical and sexual violence.Image source, Marek Polaszewski / BBCImage caption, Women wept in the meeting as experiences of physical and sexual violence were sharedMaryamu – not her real name – says she was raped by armed men wearing the turban-style headdresses typical of Arab fighters in the area, in November in her home in Geneina.She had difficulty walking afterwards, she says, sobbing as she describes fleeing: “People were running, but we couldn’t because my grandmother can’t run. I was also bleeding.”Zahra Khamis, a social worker who is a refugee herself, runs the group.Both Amina and Maryamu are from black African communities, and Ms Khamis says these, particularly the Masalit ethnic group, are being targeted in Darfur.Image source, Marek Polaszewski / BBCImage caption, Balloons and handwritten signs hang in the hut where women gather to share their experiencesDuring the war in Darfur 20 years ago, an Arab militia called the Janjaweed – in which the RSF has its roots – was mobilised by former President Omar al-Bashir to crush a rebellion by non-Arab ethnic groups.The UN says 300,000 people were killed and rape was widely used as a way to terrorise black African communities and force them to flee. Some Janjaweed leaders and Mr Bashir have been indicted by the ICC on charges of genocide and crimes against humanity. They have denied the charges and no-one has been convicted.Ms Khamis believes rape is being used in this conflict “as a weapon of revenge”.”They are doing this to the women because rape leaves an impact on society and the family,” she adds.In a rare insight into the attitudes driving violence against women, one RSF member who describes himself as a “field commander” posted a video on social media in November.”If we rape your daughter or your girl, it’s an eye for an eye. This is our country and this is our right and we took it,” he says in the clip, which has now been deleted.In response to the BBC’s questions about rapes and other attacks, the RSF said Sudanese military intelligence was “recruiting people to wear RSF clothes and commit crimes against civilians so it can be said that RSF are committing crimes, sexual assault and ethnic cleansing”.”Maybe one or two incidents were committed by RSF fighters and they were held accountable,” Omran Abdullah Hassan from the RSF leader’s advisory office told the BBC.Last year. the RSF said it would set up a process to investigate alleged human rights abuses by its forces, but the UN says no details have been given.’If you’re Masalit, they kill you’In another shelter in the same camp, Ahmat’s hands shake as he grasps a phone, watching a video, which has been verified by the BBC, showing five unarmed men lined up on a street in Ardamata in November.”I’m just going to finish them off,” a voice shouts in Sudanese Arabic, before the men are raked with gunfire from an assault rifle at point blank range.”This is Amir, and this is Abbas…,” Ahmat says, a tear rolling down his cheek.Image source, .Image caption, The video posted on social media shows the group of men lined up on a streetThis is the first time the 30-year-old, whose name we have changed, has seen the footage of the moment he was shot. It was filmed, apparently by one of the armed men, on 5 November – the day after the RSF seized the garrison – and posted online. Ahmat says his cousin Amir and his friend Abbas died instantly, but he and the two others survived.A large scar on his back marks the exit wound where a bullet ripped through his shoulder. He says he was a teacher before the war and that all five of them were civilians.”We lay down as if we were dead,” he says. “I remember praying. I was thinking it was the end.”Ahmat says he was abducted from near his home by members of the RSF and their allies. The video shows men dressed in the style typical of these forces.Two other men gave the BBC detailed testimony of being abducted and injured by armed men they believe were linked to the RSF during the same period in Ardamata.One of them, 55-year-old Yussouf Abdallah, told us he had managed to escape after being held by armed men. He says he saw them kill a mother and her newborn baby.Image source, Marek Polaszewski / BBCImage caption, Ahmat shows the exit wound on his shoulder where the bullet came out”They asked if we are from the Masalit community and, if you are, they automatically kill you,” he added.Sudan entered a fresh period of instability in 2019, when street protests and a military coup ended the near three-decade rule of Mr Bashir. A joint military-civilian government was established, but that was overthrown in another coup by the army and RSF in October 2021.But the two allies fell out over the proposed move towards civilian rule – and how the RSF should be integrated into the regular armed forces.Last April, when the RSF redeployed its members around the country, the Sudanese army saw the move as a threat, and the violence began, with neither side wanting to give up the lucrative dividends of power.’On the brink of famine’Nearly a year on, aid agencies warn of a humanitarian situation spiralling out of control, with the UN’s children’s agency, Unicef, saying some communities are on the brink of famine.Three-year-old Manasek is one of hundreds of thousands of children already suffering from severe malnutrition. She does not have the strength to walk and can barely hold her own head up.Her mother Ikram cradles her in a Unicef hospital in Port Sudan, a city on the Red Sea where thousands of people fleeing the fighting in Khartoum have sought refuge – and to which most government institutions and humanitarian organisations have also relocated.She does not know if Manasek has an underlying illness, and cannot pay for medical investigations to find out.”We lost our life, we lost our jobs,” she says, explaining that her husband has gone to northern Sudan to seek farm work and how food prices have soared out of reach. She bows her head, wiping away tears, unable to say more.Image source, Dany Abi Khalil / BBCImage caption, Zubaida (centre) has leukaemia and is sheltering in a school with her grandmother (left), her mother and three of her childrenWe visit a school in Port Sudan. Classrooms where pupils once learned are now crammed with desperate families.A stream of sewage flows along the side of the yard, where children play barefoot by piles of rubbish. We are told five people have died of cholera here.Zubaida Ammar Muhammad, a mother of eight, coughs as she tells us she has leukaemia and has been in pain since April, when her medication ran out. She was unable to get more when the war broke out and the family fled from the Khartoum area.Her husband volunteered to fight with the Sudanese military, and she has not heard from him for two months. Her mother, grandmother and the three children staying with them can do little but watch her health deteriorate.In Port Sudan we also meet a group of Coptic Christians who have fled the capital, to escape RSF threats and attacks, and the military’s air strikes.”The air force in Khartoum destroyed us,” says one of them, Sarah Elias.She says an air strike killed her husband, and another hit a neighbour’s home, killing nine people, as the military targeted RSF fighters hiding in residential areas and churches.The US says both sides have committed war crimes, and the RSF and its allied militias have also committed crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing.Both sides deny the allegations.Eleven months into the war, there is little sign of any will on either side to end to the fighting.Most of those able to leave have fled the country – and as conflict, hunger and disease continue, many people here wonder what will be left for anyone to declare victory over.Additional reporting by Peter Ball and Mohamed Ibrahim, verification by Peter MwaiRelated TopicsSudanKhartoumMore on this storySudan’s army recaptures state broadcaster HQPublished12 MarchTop StoriesFamine looms in Sudan as civil war survivors tell of killings and rapesPublished17 minutes agoEntire Gaza population facing acute hunger – USPublished6 hours agoData watchdog ‘assesses’ Kate privacy breach claimPublished20 minutes agoFeaturesThe Papers: Kate’s records ‘breached’ and Labour’s fiscal rulesWhat is Hong Kong’s tough new security law?Trump needs a $464m bond in six days.

Children scrabbling in the dirt, gathering handfuls of spilled flour which they stuff into their pockets.Aid trucks surrounded by angry mobs of mostly young men, who attack the drivers and make off with whatever they can carry. And young Maryam Abed-Rabu, trying but ultimately failing to stay composed as she answered a journalist’s questions about the daily struggle to stay alive.A girl who has already been through so much, including the loss of her father, wailing at her inability simply to find bread.Northern Gaza is almost entirely cut off from the outside world. The population, estimated at around 300,000 people, reduced to a feral existence in a world where shops barely exist and aid never arrives. The south, meanwhile, is crammed with the displaced – hundreds of thousands of people constantly on the move, looking for food, shelter and safety. Israel says it’s doing what it can to limit the suffering of civilians, but four and a half months of relentless military assault have left the Gaza Strip on its knees, with aid agencies unable to cope.”Every time you go back it gets worse,” Jamie McGoldrick, the UN’s interim coordinator for the Palestinian territories, said on Friday. Just back from his latest visit to the Gaza Strip, he found despair was rife. Image source, ReutersImage caption, Palestinians carry bags of flour from an aid truck in Gaza City”People feel as though this is the end of their journey.”At the far southern end of the Gaza Strip, between 1.2 and 1.5 million people are crammed into every available space in and around the city of Rafah. Nearby, in the sandy coastal area known as al-Mawasi, designated by Israel as a humanitarian safe zone, at least 250,000 people are now living in flimsy accommodation with little support.Doctors working for the British medical charity UK-Med have watched a tent city springing up around them.”Two weeks ago, there were one or two tents dotted along the beachfront,” UK-Med’s CEO David Wightwick told me on a scratchy line from his al-Mawasi base.”They’re now six tents deep.”A few miles south is the crossing point Israelis call Kerem Shalom (Karem Abu Salem in Arabic), where almost all aid destined for the Gaza Strip enters, after exhaustive Israeli checks.At a holding area on the Palestinian side, aid is offloaded and reloaded onto local trucks, for distribution throughout Gaza. The trucks traverse a 3km corridor to the “blue gate” at Rafah, before entering Gaza.But the collapse of security in Gaza means that for some of the aid, the journey never really begins.Trucks are attacked and looted inside the corridor.Much of the looting is by organised Palestinian gangs, with donkey carts and vehicles waiting across the fence and spotters reporting the arrival of aid.But for those trucks lucky enough to reach the blue gate, the problems have only just begun. Much of what happens next is opportunistic, and frequently violent.”Many of these trucks, before they even get 200 metres, are stopped by cars, attacked and looted,” Mr McGoldrick said.With just a few roads available for aid deliveries, and most convoys travelling in the early hours of the day, the UN says people are using social media to alert each other to the movement of convoys, allowing roadblocks and ambushes to be set up in advance.Image source, DPA / AlamyImage caption, A truck loaded with German aid enters Gaza through the Kerem Shalom border crossing”People know when we’re coming,” Mr McGoldrick said.The envoy said he had seen trucks with windows and rear-view mirrors smashed. He said he had spoken to traumatised drivers, who’d had axes thrown through their windscreens and come under fire.Rather than reaching UN warehouses and being distributed in an orderly fashion, aid often ends up being sold in street markets at vastly inflated prices which few can afford.After a World Food Programme truck was hit by gunfire on 6 February (the UN blamed Israeli naval gunfire), WFP suspended all aid deliveries to the north.Attempts to resume deliveries this week collapsed amid scenes of violent looting.The UN says it has approached Israel about opening up supply routes from the north but that discussions are at an early stage.The hope – a slender one at the moment – is to reduce incentives for looting by dramatically increasing the volumes of food and other essential goods entering Gaza.”We need to flood the north with aid,” Mr McGoldrick said, “so it doesn’t become a product that people want to use for extortionist purposes or the black market.”Israel, for its part, says it is doing what it can to facilitate the arrival of humanitarian assistance. “We are doing everything in our power… to reduce any harmful consequences of the war [to] the civilian population,” Col. Moshe Tetro, head of the military’s coordination and liaison administration for Gaza, told reporters at a briefing this week.On Friday, the military said more than 13,000 trucks, carrying over 250,000 tons of humanitarian aid, had entered the Gaza Strip since the start of the war.That’s a little over 90 trucks a day, way below the 500 UN staff say is needed to meet the growing demands of a hungry, sick, repeatedly displaced population. Israel says the problems with aid distribution are not of its making, despite the fact that the chaos reigning inside the Gaza Strip is a direct consequence of its military assault. “Unfortunately, today and yesterday, the UN didn’t show up for work,” Col Tetro said.Delays on the Palestinian side, he said, were leading to a backlog of trucks waiting to enter Gaza.”The UN should increase their capabilities inside Gaza.”But in recent weeks, security has been further eroded by a series of Israeli attacks on civilian police officers.According to David Satterfield, the Biden administration’s envoy for humanitarian issues, such attacks had made it “virtually impossible” to distribute aid safely.For the UN, Israeli calls for it to do more sound hollow. The Israeli government has embarked on a campaign to dismantle UNRWA, the UN agency responsible for assisting Palestinian refugees, following allegations that as many as 12% of UNRWA’s 13,000 staff in Gaza were also working for Hamas, with some even participating in the murderous attacks of 7 October.The UN says it’s investigating but that Israel has yet to share its intelligence. In the meantime, the Netanyahu government has already started stripping UNRWA of its functions.Responsibility for 29,000 metric tonnes of flour from USAID, currently stored at the Israeli port of Ashdod, has already been transferred to the World Food Programme.In an anguished letter to the UN General Assembly on Thursday, UNRWA’s director Philippe Lazzarini said the agency had reached “breaking point” and listed a number of measures the Israeli government was taking to hamper its work, including limiting visas for international staff, blocking an UNRWA bank account and suspending the shipment of UNRWA goods.Bad as it is at the moment, the thought of an all-out Israeli assault on Rafah, which the government threatens to do if Israeli hostages are not released before the start of Ramadan on 10 March, raises fears among aid workers that the worst is yet to come.UK-Med’s David Wightwick has already had a glimpse. When he drove to Khan Yunis to extract a medical team from Nasser Hospital, he found himself surrounded by crowds of desperate people.”The prospect of that happening in Rafah and al-Mawasi, where you’ve got hundreds of thousands of people is not one I think you really want to contemplate,” he told me.
