SUDAN CRISIS DEEPENS

As fighting between Sudan’s army and paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces has raged for close to 10 months, the humanitarian crisis has continued to deteriorate.

In this interview with US-based Breakthrough News, academic and Sudanese Communist Party’s Central Committee member Dr. Sidgi Kaballo discusses how the conflict has decimated the country’s vital infrastructure, leaving millions without access to water, electricity or health care.

Dr. Kaballo, father of African Stream CEO Ahmed Kaballo, stayed in Sudan for 7-1/2 months during the war, so he gives a first-hand account of the misery that has been inflicted on civilians. He also explains how millions of Sudanese citizens have been forced to flee to neighbouring countries since April, while the international community has shown little to no concern about the plight of Sudanese citizens since the power struggle began between the army’s General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the RSF’s Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, or ‘Hemedti.’
