He noted that the operations are functioning well now, despite some challenges like electrical stability and the need for certain resources.<\/p>\n<p>Despite certain security challenges, necessary precautions have been taken before resuming work, he assured.<\/p>\n<p>El Fasher resident Mustafa Musa Ahmed expressed his relief at the reopening of the Passport and Civil Registry departments, particularly for citizens who lacked proper documentation. \u201cWith the return of civil registry services, citizens will be able to obtain identification papers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Saddam Idris, an engineer and civil activist in El Fasher, expressed his happiness regarding the revival of the civil registry in the state. He viewed the reinstatement of these services as a positive step, particularly considering the recent conflicts that led to Darfur\u2019s separation from the state.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cCitizens of Darfur, including children, faced challenges due to the suspension of the civil registry. Now, its return not only facilitates their access to services but also helps them resolve their situations more effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In September, the Darfur Regional Government received equipment and devices from the federal government in Port Sudan to issue passports and civil registry documents, as part of the agreements reached during discussions between the Regional Government and the Caretaker Minister of Interior.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
