Inside Sudan鈥檚 devastating war

The 麻豆官网首页入口 sees first-hand the desperate conditions civilians in Sudan are living through. With the world鈥檚 attention trained on the war in Ukraine and the devastation in Gaza, another conflict which has been raging since April 2023 has received comparably little coverage. The war between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group has taken a horrific toll on the country. Just this month, the head of the UN鈥檚 World Health Organization warned that around 25 million people 鈥� half of the population 鈥� is in need of some form of support, with famine and disease rampant. 12 million people have already been forced from their homes by the war 鈥� the highest figure for any conflict in the world.
Host Katya Adler discusses the country鈥檚 current plight with the 麻豆官网首页入口鈥檚 former Sudan correspondent James Copnall, and International Correspondent Nawal Al-Maghafi, who was recently granted rare access to visit camps for internally displaced people in Port Sudan and at the Adre border the country shares with Chad.
