The hospital in El Obeid, capital of North Kordofan, received 38 cases of cholera. A medical source told Radio Dabanga that cholera infections appeared in the city two days ago, in Karima district and El Wehda district. “There is a sign with 'No entry, special cases' that prohibits entry of visitors,” the source reported from El Obeid hospital. The disease has spread into epidemic proportions <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=4d9eb8082a&e=5ffa50b614> in White Nile state. In Kosti, seven people died of cholera on Saturday. Its Eye Hospital has been turned into an isolation centre to accommodate the rising number of cases: medical sources told this station that 183 patients remain here. In the village of Asalaya, a school is transformed into an isolation centre for 126 cholera patients. White Nile state Governor Abdelhameed Mousa Kasha acknowledged the state's inability to provide safe drinking water. He reported the death of more than 20 people from “acute watery diarrhoea” and infection of 1,000 others. In neighbouring Sennar the number of patients is rising again <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=e60b05ece6&e=5ffa50b614> since early May. Early this year, the Health Ministry acknowledged a “watery diarrhoea epidemic” in eastern Sudan and Khartoum, reporting that more than 300 patients were recorded in Khartoum, El Gedaref, and Red Sea states. But medical sources accuse the authorities of hiding actual numbers. They told this station that thousands of people have been infected with cholera in the country. The death toll has climbed into the hundreds.

Minni Minawi's Sudan Liberation Movement (SLM-MM) and the SLM-Transitional Council have claimed the killing of 214 troops of the RSF and Sudan army in East and North Darfur, in battles that lasted from Friday until Monday. The joint statement by the two armed movements today reported that their commander-in-chief and leading members have been captured during the battle in Mount Adola on Sunday. The Sudanese army did not issue a statement on the capture of the rebel leader and his commanders. While the SLM-MM released a statement warning against the killing of the captured rebel leaders. A Sudanese Popular Defence Force coordinator in Kalimendo and the commissioner of Taweisha also reported the arrest of rebel fighters on Monday. “The government RSF militia took advantage of the ceasefire which the movement recently signed unilaterally in the presence of Unamid officials, and intercepted the convoys on Saturday,” the military spokesman for the SLM-MM told Radio Dabanga yesterday. The renewed fighting between government forces and rebels on more than one front in Darfur on Saturday triggered widespread reactions <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=dfe3bf9575&e=5ffa50b614> in the country and abroad, in particular as the Sudanese government has repeatedly declared that the situation in Darfur has become stable after the armed movements have been annihilated. *More news from Radio Dabanga:* *Unamid calls for restraint in renewed Darfur fighting* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=cfb8c9130a&e=5ffa50b614> May 22 - 2017 EL FASHER The Joint Special Representative of the UN-AU peacekeeping Mission in Darfur (Unamid), Jeremiah Mamabolo, has expressed the Mission’s deep concerns about the renewed clashes... *Ammo blast turns South Darfur capital into chaos* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=a27c0aa75d&e=5ffa50b614> May 22 - 2017 NYALA A huge explosion in the largest arms and ammunition storage building in the South Darfur capital of Nyala on Sunday caused panic in the entire city.
