The Hope Government initiative for peace in Sudan was launched through a purely national effort in which roles were integrated, ideas exchanged, and previous initiatives built upon.

My day has become a series of attempts to overcome these small details, which have piled up to become a daily burden. When the electricity was stable, daily household chores were easier.

Framing the war as a conflict between two generals overlooks the reality that this is fundamentally a war on civilians, who are bearing the brunt of the violence.

At least six people have been rescued, while efforts are ongoing to locate about a dozen people still missing, officials say. At least 21 people have drowned, while others remain missing, after a passenger ferry sank on the Nile in northern Sudan's River Nile State, civil defence officials have said, in the war-ravaged nation.

As RSF fighters swarmed in, they opened fire on civilians scrambling over walls and hiding in trenches in a vain effort to escape, while mowing down others with vehicles, Ibrahim said. He said seeing so many killed felt like he was running towards his own death. It was a despicable feeling, he said. How can el-Fasher fall? Is it over? I saw people running in terror. It was like judgement day. Within hours, RSF fighters were storming homes, demanding phones at gunpoint and looting property.

Food aid to war-torn Sudan could run out within months unless hundreds of millions of additional dollars are pledged, the United Nations has warned. Marking more than 1,000 days of the country's civil war, the UN's World Food Programme on Thursday issued a plea for $700m to fund its work in Sudan. The money is needed to prevent what it says is already the world's worst hunger and displacement crisis from getting worse.

It's like a ghost town, said the UN humanitarian coordinator in Sudan, Denise Brown, in an interview with EL PAIS. We don't know for sure how many people were left behind at El Fasher. There are missing people. Where are they? They may be dead, they may be detained, they may be injured. Sooner or later, we will have to do a triangulation.

When: January 3, 5pm/16:00 GMT Where: Ibn Batouta Stadium in Tangier Pre-tournament favourites Senegal open their AFCON round-of-16 campaign against Sudan, the lowest-ranked side left in the competition and appearing in the knockout stages for the first time in 14 years. Senegal finished top of Group D with seven points after two wins and a draw, edging the Democratic Republic of the Congo on goal difference.

Sudan must face 2022 champions Senegal in the last 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations after losing 2-0 to Burkina Faso in their final group game, while Algeria beat Equatorial Guinea 3-1. Lassina Traore's early strike put Burkina Faso ahead at the Mohammed V Stadium in Casablanca on Wednesday, before Algozoli Nooh squandered the chance to equalise for Sudan when he put a penalty wide.

Follow a line south and west from the Gaza Strip, continue through Egypt, and you'll end up in another place where a genocide is in progress. It's one we don't hear much about in the United States, probably because it's happening in an African nation, one of those places Donald Trump refers to as "shithole countries." (Interestingly, another of the places he included under that designation during his first term in office was El Salvador, which is run by his new BDF-Best Dictator Friend-Nayib Bukele.

A UNICEF nutrition survey released this week found that 53 percent of children under 5 in North Darfur's Umm Baru locality are acutely malnourished. Further, one in six children under 5 are suffering from severe acute malnutrition, "a life-threatening condition that can kill a child in weeks if left untreated," the group noted. It is one of the worst levels of hunger ever recorded in a UN emergency hunger assessment, at more than three times the World Health Organization's emergency threshold of 15 percent.
