At the age of only 19, Alavia Babikar Ahmed had an abortion because she was running away from the devastating war on foot which has destroyed the western region of Sudan in the western region of Darfur.

“I was bleeding on the way,” he told the BBC, earlier to add that he saw those who were “worse” during a three-day walking journey of about 70 km (45 mi) from the city of Tawila from the small town of L-Fasher.

While dodging air strikes and militiamen after his abortion, Alavia said that he and his family came in front of an infant of an infant to his mother who died on the roadside.

Alavia said that he picked up the child and took her with him: “We covered the mother and went and looked.”

Since fighting between the Army and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in April 2023, Sudan has been provoked by a civil war, forcing more than 12 million people to run away from his homes with more than 12 million people in the world.

Darfur has been a major flashpoint, with most of the RSF region controlled – except for the city of L -Fashar who remain in the hands of the army and its allies.

L-Fasher has come under intense bombing as RSF tries to seize it. In April, it announced a plan to form a government to rival an established by the army, which created apprehension that it could give rise to the division of Sudan.

Alavia said that as soon as the bombing intensified last month, he and his family were forced to flee and walk to Tawila in the west of L-Fashar.

His brother, 21 -year -old Marwan Mohammad Adam, told the BBC that he was attacked on the way by RSF -Eleed gangs – “my neck, hands and legs” and some items were robbed that he was carrying.

Marwan said that his life was spared only because he lied to the gang where he came from.

He said that the attackers participated and “executed” the “executed” youth, who revealed that they were from L-Fasher, so when they were questioned, they claimed that he was from Shakra, a stagnation on Tavila’s way.

The 21 -year -old told the BBC, “You are afraid, you think you are already dead,”

Another woman, Khadija Ismail Ali, told the BBC that “the bodies were scattered on the streets”.

He said that 11 members of his family were killed during L-Fasher’s shelling, and three children died during Tavila’s four-day visit from the city.

Khadija said, “Children died of thirst on the way.”

Her family’s village, L-Tarkunia, was attacked last September by RSF-Alide Military, who stole her crop.

He fled to the famine-stricken Zamzam camp, and then went to L-Fashar and now to Tawila.

Medical charity Alima said that while attacking the villages, gunmen took the land and fields of most families.

Severe malnutrition, especially in children coming to Tawila, reached a dangerous level, it was added.

Alavia said that her sister dropped the small food running away from the wind attacks and faced her after passing through Shakra.

“It was the remaining beans with a small salt that we moved into our hands to feed the children,” he said.

Without food or water, he met a woman, who told them that they could find water in a nearby village.

The family closed after midnight for the village, but very few people knew that they were running in an area controlled by RSF fighters.

“We greeted him, but he did not reply. They asked us to sit on the ground and discovered our belongings,” Alavia remembered.

The fighters took 20,000 Sudani pounds ($ 33; £ 24), which all the families still were, as well as with clothes and shoes that they were carrying.

“My shoes were not good, but they still took them,” Alavia said.

He said that RSF gunmen refused to give them water, so they all pressed until they reached Al-Kovim village. There, he guarded a well by RSF fighters.

“We asked for water for at least the orphan child, but refused,” Alavia said, he said that he tried to push his way for the well, but the men beat him up and beat him back.

Thirsty and tired, the family continued till Tawila reached Tawila, where Alavia said she fell and was taken to the hospital.

He was discharged after being treated. Marwan was also treated for injuries that he had maintained during the beating.

Alavia said that he then discovered the relatives of the infant whom he had saved, and after finding some of them, handed over to the child.

The bonfire and his family are now living in Tavila, where a family has welcomed him at home.

“Life is fine, thankfully to God, but we worry about the future,” Alavia told the BBC.

Marwan said that he wanted to go abroad so that he could continue with his education and start a new life.

This is something that has been done by millions of Sudani, because his life is shattered by a war that shows no sign of ending.
