In Um Rakuba camp, MSF teams provided 453 medical consultations between November 19 and 23. The teams are mainly treating diarrhea and urinary tract infections. Two patients arrived with gunshot wounds and were referred to Gedaref hospital for further treatment. Fifteen people with severe acute malnutrition and 154 people with moderate malnutrition were identified and given nutritional supplements. Some people show symptoms of anxiety and insomnia due to the violence they saw or experienced in Ethiopia and the conditions of their travels to Sudan.
“On November 3 or 4 I was working in the workshop; suddenly I heard sounds of war, very loud noises, ”said a young Ethiopian in his 30s who shared his story with MSF. “I don’t know why they are fighting, I saw many people die, even the elderly, I know many of them. I’m confused, I don’t know why they did this. “
“In Tigray, people hide in the bush, young and old. The most difficult thing is that we do not have money, nothing to cook, nobody brought anything from home, “he added. “We had to go. I came with two pairs of pants. Before the war started, the electricity, the phone network, the banks, they were all closed. I have money back there, but not here.”
