Sudan "starved Darfur refugees"

A UN report has accused the Sudanese government and Arab militia of colluding in the systematic starving of refugees in the Darfur region.

The report said a United Nations team found "appalling" and "outrageous" conditions when it visited the town of Kailek less than two weeks ago.

Pro-government Arab militias had been preventing food deliveries and stopped anyone leaving the town, it added.

One aid worker described what happened there as the "politics of starvation."
