In Chad, tens of thousands of refugees who’ve fled violence in Sudan face another lethal threat: shortages of running water amid scorching temperatures. Sudanese refugees say the little water they have access to is needed for drinking, leaving little for toilets and sanitation.
Eve: “We wait for water for six hours, and we spend the whole day here, overcrowded. There are water cuts, heat, hunger, thirst, and the water containers are limited. We have no pots, mattresses, blankets or covers. We spend the day in the heat. Whether you come to get water, it’s hot, or you sit in the tent, it’s also hot.”
