Sudan is entering a fourth year of war marked by famine and massacres, in what the United Nations calls an “abandoned crisis.” The conflict between the military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has displaced 13 million people.
At least 59,000 people have died.
Regional powers like the United Arab Emirates are reportedly backing combatants, while global attention has shifted to the Middle East.
Fuel prices have surged, worsening food costs.
The war is rooted in a power struggle after Sudan’s transition to democracy and could spill over borders.
The International Criminal Court is investigating potential war crimes.
