Khartoum / Al-Hamish’s Voice – September 2, 2025. The General Coordination of Camps for Displaced Persons and Refugees in Sudan announced on Tuesday that the village of Tarsin, located west of the Soni area in the Amoo district of the Marrah Mountains, witnessed a horrific humanitarian disaster on Sunday after massive landslides caused by heavy rains.
