El Fasher, the capital city of North Darfur State in Western Sudan has become "the most dangerous and worst place to live on earth" due to the deadly civil war, according to a non-governmental doctors' union.
"All residents of El Fasher may become dead, either from hunger, thirst, bullets, lack of health and medical services, or other repercussions of the ongoing conflict," the Preliminary Committee of the Sudanese Doctors Union said in its report released on Saturday.
