00:00In Darfur, hundreds of thousands of displaced people are packed into overcrowded camps battling
00:06disease, hunger and trauma after fleeing brutal clashes between the Sudanese army and paramilitary
00:12forces. For the first time, foreign journalists have entered this long-sealed region. What
00:18they found? Paramilitaries in control, whole towns emptied and a flood of survivors seeking
00:25safety. There were bombings, bombs falling everywhere, shells. Most of the displaced fled
00:37Al-Fasha just 60 kilometers away. Now in Tawhila, they survive on scarce food aid and rationed
00:43water. Dr. Abdullah has watched the camps explode in size. Overcrowded and unsanitary, these camps
00:50are breeding grounds for cholera. Epidemics aren't the only wounds here. Faiza Abdallah, a mental
01:13health worker and refugee herself, helps women heal from deep psychological trauma. Many
01:19were attacked by paramilitaries on the road to exile. In quiet circles, Faiza urges them
01:25to speak to break the silence.
01:26Some prisoners hide themselves. They didn't come to us. They're shy.
01:32A UN inquiry accuses both Sudan's army and paramilitaries of deliberately targeting civilians, citing atrocities,
01:40war crimes, and by the paramilitaries, crimes against humanity.
