Finally back online after days of poor connection and isolation!
The poor connectivity has been impacting our aid work in #Sudan. I hope the situation improves soon.

Ppl on Twitter literally doing the work of UNHCR. What do you mean regular ppl arranging for accommodation at an INTERNATIONAL border, arranging for healthcare when ppl DISPLACED BY WAR cross a border, warning ppl to bring enough FOOD+WATER because none is available? @Refugees
« Guys does anyone know what could be done if you come across a grenade in Sudan
My family found a grenade inside the house gate that hasn’t gone off yet and they don’t know what to do about it »

Internet in #Sudan is down for most providers, and the ones working are patchy and will go down soon. Mostly because major telecom towers were damaged. I’m currently hotspotting from MTN but won’t have it for long.
Losing internet in such circumstances is terrifying.
Thinking of the underprivileged who couldn't even afford basic necessities before this chaos, let alone have the privilege to even think of fleeing to neighbouring countries right now. Thats the reality of over half the population. May god be with every one of them
My family and I have just crossed safely to Egypt here’s a detailed thread breaking down everything you need to know and all the safety precautions you should take please share this as it can be a great help to so many people

Every village & town we passed thru people would come out with their kerkade (hibiscus) juice and cold water for the “Khartoum travellers”. Humbling experience cause they don’t have much but were offering plenty.
Why would I leave this?
⚠ Update: Sudan remains largely offline in the midst of an internet blackout, with connectivity at 2% of ordinary levels; the military allege that paramilitaries sabotaged the telecom exchange in Khartoum early this morning impacting networks including Sudani
A reminder that all local calls and SMS services have been severed in #Sudan.
The military has cut off all forms of communication from the people.

A reminder that the military is not aiming to just control crowds, or stop the protests, they're aiming to terrorize the people into submission.
How many gunshot wounds to the head have we recorded in the last 24 days? These people are shooting to kill.
#SudanCoup#Nov17March
Imagine seeing people in IDP camps come out to protest military rule
And saying “not all military”
Or “let’s think about how to come to an agreement with them”
Hahahahahahahahaa TRASH YALL ARE TRASH
A reminder that Sudan is still under an internet blackout since October 25, imposed by the military as a way to limit flow of info both internally & out to the world.
A reminder that this is a human rights violation.
But we are still here.
