I spent yesterday in Korma with survivors of El Fasher atrocities. So many halting, harrowing conversations in Arabic, or translated from Zaghawa, about horror and misery.
Then Haseena pushed through crowd. Speaking in perfect English, she wanted the world to hear her story. #Sudan

Six hour drive ahead to Tawila, where we need to get much more lifesaving support, humanitarian presence - and protection - to survivors. #Sudan

But immense challenges persist.

That's a 43% drop compared to the same time last year.
