Darfur Fighting

As the Sudanese Government clashes with Darfur there is no exact death toll yet recorded. No one is able to access the battlezone and even the spokesperson for UN relief in Darfur was unable to confirm a death count. However, there have been thousands upon thousands of civilians forced from their homes. The situation heated up after the main rebel group signed a peace deal with Khartoum about a month ago. The Sudanese Government has been bombing the area day and night. Some view this as an action to get shared power in Khartoum, yet the end result has yet to play out.
