Violence and hunger continue in Darfur four years since the conflict first erupted in 2003 KHARTOUM
Four years since the Darfur conflict erupted, violence and hunger continue to ravage the western Sudanese region, claiming more innocent lives while the world stood helpless.
"Four years is far too much ... The fact that this goes on is a disgrace," said UN peace envoy Jan Eliasson during a recent visit to Khartoum with his African Union (AU) counterpart, Salim Ahmed Salim, reported Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Friday, February 23.
The Darfur conflict erupted in February 2003 and has killed up to 200,000 people and displaced two million people.
