A picture shows women standing in Damazin, in Sudan's Blue Nile state, some 450 kilometres (280 miles) south of the capital Khartoum, on August 7, 2022. - More than a week of bloodshed last month in southern Sudan's Blue Nile state left at least 105 people dead and scores wounded, as rival groups fought in a complex conflict involving deep-seated grievances, control of land and battles for power. Blue Nile, a region awash with guns bordering South Sudan and Ethiopia, is still struggling to rebuild after decades of wider civil war between ethnic minority rebels complaining of marginalisation against government forces of hardline president Omar al-Bashir.
