A protracted civil conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the powerful paramilitary group, the Rapid Support Forces, has resulted in over 5,000 casualties and the displacement of five million individuals from their homes, as reported by the United Nations.
As the conflict continues to deepen, the humanitarian situation in Sudan is deteriorating, and the long-anticipated transition to democracy remains elusive.
Mohammed, who has been residing in Sudan since the outbreak of the conflict in April, recently shared his perspective with BBC’s Newsday, describing the ongoing struggle as “a mess.”
“Everything changed rapidly… the situation is dynamic,” Mohammed lamented, “It’s getting harder and harder.”
Despite the challenging circumstances, Mohammed expressed optimism, highlighting the efforts of volunteers and humanitarian groups operating on the ground to provide aid and support to those affected by the conflict.
“Something good always happens when there is evil around,” he remarked.
The situation in Sudan remains a matter of global concern, with many hoping for an end to the violence and a peaceful path towards democracy. For more updates on the ongoing crisis in Sudan.
