When fighting broke out between the Sudanese army and Rapid Support Forces in mid April, there were just over 360 children - including many infants - living in the Mygoma orphanage in Khartoum. Like most of the population, they were trapped. In the time since, 67 of the children have died of malnourishment or illness. Those caring for them couldn’t get enough food. Some of their regular carers couldn’t reach them. And hospitals were destroyed or inaccessible. But now, all these weeks later, a coordinated effort by a number of agencies has finally got them out to safety. So what’s the story of the children of the Mygoma orphanage? For #africadaily, Alan Kasujja speaks to Unicef’s child protection expert in Sudan, Osman Abu Fatima, who was in charge of setting up their new home.
