Fighting renewed in West Darfur’s capital city El Geneina amid reports of several deaths and shortages of vital water and food supplies, in addition to widespread destruction.

Sources provide contradictory narratives about the nature of the conflict. Some sources stated that clashes are between Sudan’s military and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in light of reports on the presence of arms stashes containing more than 6,000 weapons of all kinds.

Other sources reported that the recent fighting broke out between Arab tribes and Masalit tribes, which previously threatened to secede from Sudan.

The United Nations’ humanitarian office OCHA reported that El Geneina was plunging into chaos with “clashes, looting and burning of houses."

“Markets have reportedly been looted, as well as several humanitarian organizations’ premises. Most of the health centers are not functioning,” OCHA added.

On its account, Sudan Doctors Union warned that the city’s hospitals are out of service in the area of the clashes.

El Geneina is one of the biggest cities in Sudan, and it is situated in the country's far west. With a distance of 1,200 km from Khartoum, 350 km from El Fasher, and 27 km from Chad, it serves as the state capital of West Darfur and the gateway to Dar es Salaam.

Fighting in Sudan's capital entered a third week, marking the latest battles between forces of rival generals -- General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan's Sudanese Armed Forces and Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo's Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which left hundreds dead and thousands wounded.
