Dibebad (
During the war in Sudan which started on 15 April 2023 and in June 2023, the town of Debibad was raided by paramilitaries of the RSF and by large groups of gunmen on subsequent days. The entire town was plundered, and three women were raped.[4] On June 22, 2023, heavy fighting took place between the SAF and the paramilitary RSF at the Teiba military base, 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) south of Debibad. The battle resulted in the loss of approximately 40 army personnel, four paramilitaries of the RSF, and numerous injuries on both sides. The RSF reportedly conducted a victory parade inside Debibad, in a "display of triumph".[5]
The road between Delling and Kadugli, the capital of South Kordofan, is still closed due to security reasons. This has led to long lines of vehicles in Delling, waiting to continue to other places in the state or to the South Sudanese border.[5][6]
