Darfuri camel herders (sudanreeves.org)
Yesterday, angry farmers in the area of Tabit, North Darfur, closed the El Fasher-Nyala road, to protest against the destruction of agricultural land and crops by herders’ camels and livestock grazing.
Farmer activists told Radio Dabanga that farmers from 150 villages had set up their tents in the area of Kedarik, near Tabit, to demand protection during the harvest season as well as the provision of water and medicines. They also called for the opening of a prosecution office in the region and cited the ongoing violations and abuses of the herders.
