Reports from the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, suggest that looting has become such a severe problem that it's causing shortages of basic supplies.
A doctor has told the BBC that a criminal gang - armed with knives and guns - tried to break into his hospital overnight, as rival military factions continue to fight for control of the city.
The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have been seen looting banks.
As well as the destruction caused by airstrikes and clashes between the rival forces, there are worrying signs of anarchy in Khartoum.
Both sides have been taking part in talks in the Saudi city of Jeddah to try to ensure civilians can get supplies and humanitarian aid can be given out.
But they have not committed to ending the war through dialogue.
