Muhajiriya

Susan E. Rice, the American ambassador to the United Nations, called on Sudan to protect civilians in Muhajiriya, in Darfur. My sources on the ground say the JEM rebel group has withdrawn 50-60 kilometers from the town. The Gov of Sudan cannot justify the ongoing bombing and the attack that is feared. Civilians that remain have gathered around the UN (UNAMID) base at the edge of the town, hoping for protection. As many as 20,000 people are gathered there now. The rest have fled in all directions. Humanitarian access is being denied.
