As part of the African Union–United Nations Mission in Darfur’s (UNAMID) continuing efforts to assist local communities, UNAMID Chinese engineers on 21 January began improvements to El-Daein’s airport in East Darfur.The works, consisting of the construction of an 8 kilometer perimeter fence around the airfield, are expected to be completed by early March. Last year the Chinese peacekeepers undertook a similar initiative in the locality by refurbishing a 4 kilometer road linking the airport to the town.
