Two years after the start of the civil war in Sudan, #BBCAfricaEye and #BBCEye Investigations have gained unique access to El Fasher, the capital of north Darfur.
Described by the UN as "Hell on Earth, where people could lose their lives on any day", a million people are living under bombardment in El Fasher - the last city to hold out against the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, who have besieged it for a year.
The siege imposed by the RSF has prevented any journalists from entering the city for the last 12 months, but BBC Eye Investigations managed to get cameras to three of its citizens. They describe their daily battle to survive under siege and being targeted because of their African ethnicity, in terms that seem to support the UN's warning of potential genocide.
