Death and homelessness in Darfur


More than 2m people have been left homeless in Darfur since fighting broke out in 2003 when rebels took up arms, while some 200,000 have found saftey in Chad. Most people put the number of deaths at 200,000; Sudan's government says 9,000, while the UN estimates it is at about 300,000. The Janjaweed are mainly at fault for all the deaths.
