What鈥檚 happening in West Darfur?

Sudan鈥檚 new government vowed to bring peace to the country. So, why has there been a new wave violence in the West Darfur region? And who鈥檚 behind it?

Darfur鈥檚 recent history is one of violence.

But, after Sudan鈥檚 Omar al-Bashir was ousted from the presidency in 2019, there was hope.

A transitional government was formed 鈥� and with it came promises of stability.

A peace agreement was signed with rebel factions that, for years, had fought the government.

And yet, despite those deals, a new wave of violence has hit West Darfur.

Who鈥檚 behind? And how did it come about in the first place?
