Overview

• The Sudan Liberation Movement said a massive slide on Sunday buried Tarasin/Tarsin in Jebel Marra and left the settlement completely destroyed.
• The group reported that more than 1,000 residents were killed with only a single survivor from the village.
• The rebel movement and Darfur governor Minni Minnawi called on the United Nations and aid groups to help recover bodies and clear debris.
• Reports attribute the disaster to heavy seasonal rains, while the isolated, conflict-affected terrain complicates on-the-ground assessment.
• Years of fighting between the army and the RSF have cut off large parts of Darfur and displaced millions, with health groups also warning of cholera risks in nearby camps.
