The world's forgotten war: Sudan

Sudan has suffered a brutal conflict that has killed nearly 20,000 people, displaced over 10 million, and left around 25 million facing acute hunger. Sudan's cities have been turned into battlefields. Fighting has been marked by mass rape and murder, hospitals have been attacked, one in five people have now fled their homes, and cholera is on the rise.The scale of the humanitarian crisis in Sudan far outstrips Gaza and Ukraine, yet it receives almost no attention. So how did things get so bad? Why isn't it being covered more? And is there any prospect of peace? ContributorsVenetia RaineyAsil SidahmedBasma KhalifaDr Jennifer HulseResources to find out more about the war in Sudan and how you can help:https://x.com/MadaniyaSDGhttps://linktr.ee/londonforsudanhttps://x.com/khartoumkitchen Hosted on Acast.
