First modification:
Oil exploitation in the western Kordofan state, which contains one of Sudan’s largest reserves, is causing a health crisis. Due to the lack of environmental standards, the local population ingests oil residues through the water, causing an increase in diseases and numerous malformations in newborns. Villagers have long ignored the dangers of oil production, mostly carried out by Chinese companies.
