From 12 to 18 August 2026, flash flooding struck Dabanira IDPs Camp [A] in Tawila, North Darfur, destroying shelters, household belongings, and food stocks. After an alert from the FSL Cluster in Darfur, SAMA, our local partner Alaioun (AOPDHA), and local authorities carried out a joint assessment on 1 September 2026. It confirmed that 725 households lost their homes completely and 241 were partially damaged, affecting nearly 6,000 people.
With your support, Alaioun distributed 165 emergency food baskets (flour, lentils, oil, and salt) in a single-day distribution on 11 October 2026, reaching about 990 people. Households whose homes were totally destroyed were prioritized, and baskets were distributed in coordination with local authorities. SAMA’s M&E officer in Tawila monitored the distribution, and an external photographer documented it.
Funds raised through GlobalGiving, together with SAMA’s own contribution, covered procurement, transport, and distribution.
