A Sudanese journalist has written of her fury that the world is “looking away” from the horrendous war in her country because attention is being diverted to Gaza.
Writing for the BBC, Zeinab Mohammed Salih said there was currently “no international pressure” on the two sides to stop the bloody conflict, which has so far displaced eight million people, killed around 15,000 and left 33,000 injured.
"International attention is focused on Gaza and before that it was on Ukraine," she wrote. “Without pressure, I cannot see an end.”
The core of the conflict, which broke out on April 15 2023, is a power struggle between the regular army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group.
