Al-Fashir, Kampala: Altaghyeer
The first relief convoys crossed the Chadian borders at al-Tina town into al-Fashir in North Darfur after months of suspension.
Carrying medical and food supplies provided by international non-government organisations, the convoys arrived at the city under protection of the Darfur armed movements joint force, said Spokesperson of Sudan Liberation Army/Minawe faction, Ahmed Hussain.
The supplies are intended to support more than 185,000 people including women and children.
People in Darfur region are witnessing wide spread hunger since the World Food Program (WFP) suspended relief operations ten months ago.
The Sudanese status quo government has closed the borders citing concerns that they would be used to send military supplies to the rival Rapid Support Forces.
But the government announced this month that a number of border crossings and airports could be used as corridors for humanitarian aid.
Darfur Region government rejected on Friday the RSF disapproval of delivering humanitarian assistance via al-Shamalia (the Northern) State describing the move as a crime against humanity.

Palestinian Red Crescent Announces Shutdown of Medical Clinic in Gaza
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) announced on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, the suspension of operations at one of its medical clinics in eastern Gaza City after several Israeli shells landed in the surrounding area, posing a serious threat to the safety of medical teams and patients.
In a statement, the organization said: “Operations at the PRCS Al-Zaytoun Clinic in Gaza City have been halted after shells struck the area surrounding the clinic, endangering the safety of medical staff and patients.”
The clinic had been providing services to thousands of patients, particularly as the area became crowded with displaced residents from eastern Gaza following evacuation orders issued by the Israeli military.
The statement added that “thousands of civilians will now be forced to walk long distances to access healthcare or to get their children vaccinated.”
The PRCS noted that this brings the total number of its clinics forced out of service since October 7, 2023, to 18, due to ongoing Israeli military actions and repeated evacuation orders.
This development comes at a time when Gaza’s healthcare system is on the brink of total collapse. The fuel crisis, caused by Israel’s closure of border crossings since March, has put what remains of the Strip’s hospitals and medical centers at risk of shutting down.
The crisis is further compounded by a severe shortage of essential medicines and medical supplies, while the number of wounded arriving at hospitals continues to rise, as repeatedly confirmed by the Ministry of Health.
