FIGHTERS from the notorious paramilitary Rapid Support Forces massacred more than 120 people in one town in east-central Sudan.
It was the group's latest attack in the civil war against the Sudanese military which has raged for more than a year, killing at least 24,000 people, displacing millions and pushing the country to the brink of a full-blown famine.
The Sudanese Doctors’ Union said that at least 124 people were killed and 200 others were wounded in the town of Sariha, adding that the RSF rounded up at least 150 others.
As the Alliance of Sahel States and southern African nations advance pan-African goals, the African Union must listen and learn rather than parroting the Western line on these positive developments, writes ROGER McKENZIE
Money makers already exploit cleaning and catering contracts while the military-industrial complex diverts billions from health to warfare — but Bevan’s vision will endure as long as people fight for it, writes ROGER MCKENZIE
