Oh god. When one of the most unstable, poverty-stricken counties in the world is at risk of “spiraling out of control”, it’s really bad. Today it’s a refugee crisis and genocide, next year it’ll be mass food insecurity :(
Especially disheartening because there was genuine optimism in 2019.
2019 was the last time things will feel like that I fear.
all corners of the earth burning, plastic in every waterway, bugs disappearing in mass, hottest month on record.

It is ok to communicate. It’s actually better than isolating yourself in your depression. You’re scrolling and commenting too, and thats alright.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Fighting between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has devastated the capital Khartoum and sparked ethnically driven attacks in Darfur, threatening to plunge Sudan into a protracted civil war and destabilise the region.
The millions who remain in Khartoum and cities in the Darfur and Kordofan regions have faced rampant looting and long power, communications and water cuts.
Seasonal rains that increase the risk of water-borne diseases have destroyed or damaged the homes of up to 13,500 people, the U.N. estimates.
In a speech on Monday, army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan accused the RSF of aiming “to take the country back to an era before the modern state” and “committing every crime that can be imagined.”
The RSF has accused the army of trying to seize full power under the direction of loyalists of Omar al-Bashir, the autocratic leader who was toppled during a popular uprising in 2019.
Efforts led by Saudi Arabia and the United States to negotiate a ceasefire in the current conflict have stalled, and humanitarian agencies have struggled to provide relief because of insecurity, looting and bureaucratic hurdles.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
