  • The original tag on this village shows, "Destroyed village." There is no evidence that this is the case. It is only a politically driven statement. This is one of thousands of such village sites in the west and south of Sudan that are seasonably occupied by the semi-nomadic peoples of this area. Yes, there are many villages destroyed by janjaweed militias and regular army troops of the nation of Sudan. But to go about labeling many unoccupied or seasonably abandoned villages as "destroyed" or "destroyed during the genocide" is quite irresponsible and makes this wonderful Wikimapia function less useful.
