In May, Amira embarked on a difficult journey through a highly dangerous area as the RSF took over her city, En Nahud, in West Kordofan. With no available hospitals and a desperate need to escape, she felt she had no choice but to flee, knowing the risks involved.

During her flight, Amira recorded an audio diary shared by Avaaz, and later connected with the BBC by phone from Uganda's capital while waiting to give birth.

Her experience was fraught with peril from the start. Traveling in overcrowded trucks, she witnessed shocking aggression from gun-toting RSF drivers, one of whom threatened the life of a fellow passenger over a seating dispute. Amid chaos and panic, Amira held onto her fear that her baby would arrive at any moment, praying for safety.

Eventually, after multiple vehicle changes and dangers, Amira reached the border of South Sudan - but not without hardship along the way, facing extortion, high transportation fees, and dire weather conditions.

Now in Uganda, she reflects on her anxiety regarding her family left in Sudan and anticipates the challenges of motherhood, expressing both hope and fear for the future stability of her homeland.
