In May, Human Rights Watch said ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity have been committed against ethnic Massalit and non-Arab communities in part of Darfur by the RSF and its Arab allies. The RSF rejects this and says it is not involved in what it calls a "tribal conflict" in the region.

Asked about what future she envisages for her and her children, she says: “What future? Our future is over - there is nothing left. My children are traumatised. Every day, my 10-year-old son cries wanting to go home. We went from living in a house, going to school and now we live in a tent.”

An employee for Unicef - the UN children’s agency - showing us around the camp says those who have arrived here are the “lucky ones”.

“They managed to escape the fighting and come here... they have shelter and aid,” he says.
