Sudan: Family life in a war zone

Newsday

Available for over a year

After nearly eight months of fighting in Sudan, a senior Sudanese military official has accused the United Arab Emirates of arming the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. The army and the RSF have been fighting each other for control of Sudan since April - creating a war zone that has displaced more than six million people. But it's hard to comprehend such a large number. So let's focus on just one for a moment - his name is Mohammed Faddoul, or Mo. Mo has been in touch with Newsday since the start of the war in Sudan telling us what is going on, having stayed behind with his family when the other British nationals were leaving. Gunshots rang out in the background as he explained how he's been coping since he last spoke to us. (Photo: Mohammed Faddoul at home with his family, before the war started.
