Jabal Awliya (Arabic: جبل أولياء, Jabal al Awliyā', Jebel Aulia, Gebel Aulia) is a village in the north-central part of Sudan,^[1] about 40 km (25 mi) south of Khartoum. Nearby is the Jebel Aulia Dam, built in 1937 by the British for the Egyptian government. Jabal Awliya became a refuge camp during the Second Sudanese Civil War, housing more than 100,000 inhabitants.^[2] On February 26, 1996, a Sudanese C-130 transport plane crashed at Jabal Awliya, killing 53.^[3]
