The heat wave claimed the lives of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/english.ahram.org.eg\/NewsContent\/1\/64\/138650\/Egypt\/Politics-\/Four-die-in-Egypts-Aswan-due-to-continued-heatwave.aspx\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">40 people<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> over the span of four days; a rare occurrence last recorded nearly two decades ago in 2002 when the cities of Daraw and Kharga, neighboring Aswan, recorded similar temperatures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This heat wave has brought about a new disaster for irregular Sudanese migrants crossing the desert into Egypt in search of a safe haven. According to the Refugees Platform in Egypt (RPE), 40 people, including children, women, and entire families, have died between June 7th and 9th.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the same time, dozens of families have reported their loved ones missing during their journey to Egypt, while dozens of injured individuals were admitted to various hospitals in Aswan Governorate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eyewitnesses in Aswan report that locals found migrant vehicles with Sudanese migrants collapsed around them when venturing into the areas surrounding Aswan. While there have been reports of deaths due to dehydration and burns sustained from prolonged exposure to the intense heat of the sun, other reported deaths and injuries are related to accidents involving the vehicles transporting them. Eyewitnesses confirm that the cases admitted into hospitals so far were discovered by chance on the roads around Aswan and on desert roads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Survivors who spoke with the RPE report that the number of people missing in the desert exceeds those who have been hospitalized so far. According to a well-informed source in Aswan, the Egyptian authorities are holding the injured survivors under guard in hospitals as they recover to be forcibly deported after.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A family member of one of the deceased and injured survivors reported that the authorities informed their families in the hospitals that they are under police guard until they are forcibly deported to Sudan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So far, the Egyptian authorities have not announced the number of deaths that have reached Aswan hospitals nor issued any official statements regarding any search and rescue operations despite numerous families reporting their loved ones missing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Likewise, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has not issued any statements or comments on what happened in Aswan and the border area, nor did\u00a0 it visit the survivors to register those wishing to apply for asylum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to what the RPE has documented, the Public Prosecution has filed several administrative reports in Aswan in recent days regarding the bodies that have arrived at hospitals. However, no investigations have been conducted into the status of the deaths and injuries from the accidents.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Platform had documented in an investigation into similar cases over the past year, noting that the Prosecution ultimately decides to hold the bodies and refer the survivors to the administrative authority \u2014 usually the National Security Agency and the Immigration Administration of the Ministry of Interior\u2014 which raises concerns about the potential deportation of the survivors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The power struggle in Sudan has resulted in one of the largest humanitarian crises in the world, with the number of displaced persons nearing 10 million, in addition to thousands of deaths and significant material losses.
