Podcasts about Khartoum

Baltimore, Téhéran, Buenos Aires, Khartoum, aux quatre coins du monde, des communautés sont frappées de plein fouet par les violences d'État… jusqu'au jour où elles réagissent. D'abord en s'indignant, puis en bravant tous les interdits pour faire connaître la réalité des faits, les propager et les dénoncer. Des femmes et des hommes qui se retrouvent dans la rue à défier le pouvoir, à brandir les photos de leurs enfants disparus, à chanter et à danser, pour l'égalité des droits et pour la liberté ! Mais pourquoi certaines morts soulèvent-elles des foules ? Qu'est-ce que nos émotions, de l'indignation à la colère, font à la politique ? En quoi les affections qui nous lient jouent dans nos réactions et nos actions ? Du mouvement Black Lives Matter aux États-Unis au soulèvement Femme, Vie, Liberté en Iran, en passant par la révolution au Soudan, notre invitée anthropologue Chowra Makaremi questionne nos résistances affectives.

Gott, une âme sensible très chamboulé par les actualités du monde, a une santé mentale fragile, et décide de couper des infos et des réseaux sociaux pendant un voyage à Mayotte. Mais c'est sans compter la réalité, qui le rattrape trop vite : son ami Sabry est bloqué à Khartoum avec sa femme enceinte alors que la guerre civile au Soudan est en train d'éclater dans la capitale. Gott essaie donc, à distance depuis Bruxelles et à travers les réseaux sociaux, de remuer ciel et terre pour sauver Sabry et Rayan : mercenaires, humanitaires, diplomates, tout le monde est sollicité pour les sortir de là.

This week we talk about the RSF, coups, and the liberal world order.We also discuss humanitarian aid, foreign conflicts, and genocide.Recommended Book: Inventing the Renaissance by Ada PalmerTranscriptIn 2019, a military government took over Sudan, following a successful coup d'état against then-President Omar al-Bashir, who had been in power for thirty years. al-Bashir's latter years were plagued by popular demonstrations against rising costs of living and pretty abysmal living standards, and the government lashed out against protestors violently, before then dissolving local government leaders and their offices, replacing them with hand-picked military and intelligence officers. After he responded violently to yet another, even bigger protest, the military launched their coup, and the protestors pivoted to targeting them, demanding a civilian-run democracy.Just two months later, after unsuccessful negotiations between the new military government and the folks demanding they step aside to allow a civilian government to take charge, the military leaders massacred a bunch civilians who hosted a sit-in protest. Protestors shifted to a period of sustained civil disobedience and a general strike, and the government agreed to hold elections in 2022, three years later, and said that they would investigate the massacre their soldiers committed against those protestors. They also established a joint civilian-military unity government that would run things until the new, civilian government was eventually formed.In late-2021, though, the Sudanese military launched another coup against the unity government, and that council was dissolved, a state of emergency was declared, and all the important people who were helping the country segue back into a democracy were arrested. A new military-only junta was formed, incorporating the two main military groups that were running things, at that point.In 2023, those two military bodies that were working together to run Sudan via this military junta, the Rapid Support Forces, a paramilitary group that were made into a sort of official part of the country's military, while remaining separate from it, and the official Sudanese army, both started aggressively recruiting soldiers and taunting each other with military maneuvers. On April 15 that year, they started firing on each other.This conflict stemmed from the Sudanese military demanding that the RSF dissolve itself, all their people integrating into the country's main military apparatus, but some kind of stand-off seemed to be a long time coming, as the RSF started its recruiting efforts earlier that year, and built up its military resources in the capital as early as February. But as I mentioned, this tinderbox erupted into a shooting war in April, beginning in the capital city, Khartoum, before spreading fast to other major cities.So what eventually became a Sudanese civil, which at this point has been ongoing for nearly 2.5 years, began in April of 2023, was long-simmering before that, is between two heavily armed military groups that ran the country together for a few years, and which both claim to be the rightful leaders or owners of the country, and they're fighting each other in heavily populated areas.This war was also kicked off and is now sustained in part by ethnic conflicts between the main belligerents, which includes the aforementioned Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces, but also the Sudan Liberation Movement, which governs a fairly remote and self-sufficient mountainous area in the southern part of the country, and the al-Hilu movement, which supports the RSF's efforts in the region.What I'd like to talk about today is what's happening on the ground in Sudan, in the third year of this conflict, and at a moment when the world's attention seems to have refocused elsewhere, major governments that would have previously attempted to stop the civil war have more or less given up on doing so, and the Sudanese civilians who have been pulled into the conflict, or who have been forced to flee their homes as a consequence of this war, have been left without food, shelter, or any good guys to cheer for.—Sudan has been plagued by coups since it gained independence from the UK and Egypt in 1956; it's seen 20 coup attempts, 7 of them successful, including that most recent one in 2019, since independence.This region also has a recent history of genocide, perhaps most notably in the western Darfur region, where an estimated quarter of a million people from a trio of ethnic groups were killed between 2003 and 2005, alone, and something like 2.7 million people were displaced, forced to flee the systematic killings, strategically applied sexual violence, and other abuses by the Sudanese military and the local, rebel Janjaweed militias, which were often armed by the government and tasked with weeding out alleged rebel sympathizers in the region.This new civil war is on a completely different scale, though. As of April of 2025, two years into the conflict, it's estimated that about 12.5 million people have been displaced, forced from their homes due to everything being burned down or bombed, due to threats from local military groups, killing and assaulting and forcibly recruiting civilians to their cause, and due to a lack of resources, the food and water and shelter all grabbed by these military forces and denied to those who are just trying to live their lives; and that's true of locally sourced stuff, but also humanitarian aide that makes it into the country—it's grabbed by the people with guns, and the people without guns are left with nothing.More than 3.3 million Sudanese people are estimated to have fled the country entirely, and recent figures show that around 25 million people are facing extreme levels of hunger, on the verge of starving to death, including about five million children and their mothers who are essentially wasting away. There are reports of people eating leaves and charcoal, just to get something in their stomachs, and photo evidence of these unmoving crowds of skeletal people who are desperate to get anything, any kind of nutrition at all, any clean water, still make it out of the country, though less and less, as it's becoming more difficult for reporters to make it into and out of the area, safely, and the internet and other communication services, where they're still available, are often shut down.Aid agencies have said that this civil war has created the world's worst humanitarian crisis, and even the US government, which especially right now has been very hesitant to say anything about foreign conflicts, has made it pretty clear that they consider this to be a genocide; there are conscious, intentional, obviously planned efforts to systematically wipe out different ethnic groups, and to cleanse areas of hated political and religious rivals, but this genocide is being carried out at the exact moment that many of the world's major, wealthy governments, which historically would have tried to step in and remedy the situation in some way—often ham-handedly, sometimes by supporting one side or the other to try to gain influence in the region, but almost always by also airdropping food and medical goods and other resources into the area to try to help civilians—these governments are mostly pulling back from those sorts of efforts.Some analysts and regional experts have suggested that this points toward a new normal in the global geopolitical playing field; the so-called liberal world order that helped organize things, that established rules and norms from the end of WWII onward, and which incentivized everyone playing nice with each other, not invading each other, not committing genocide, and focusing on trade over war, is falling apart, the United States in particular deciding to stop funding things, stop participating, deciding to antagonize the allies that helped it maintain this state of affairs, and to basically drop anything that seems to much like a responsibility to people not in the United States. And a lot of other governments are either scrambling to figure out what that means for them, or deciding that they can afford to do something of the same. China, for instance, while stepping in to fill some of those voids, strategically, has also pulled back on some of its humanitarian efforts, because it no longer needs to invest as much in such things to compete with the US, which no longer seems to be competing in that space at all, with rare exceptions.Conflicts in Africa, also with rare exceptions, also just tend to get less attention than conflicts elsewhere, and there are all sorts of theories as to why this might be the case, from simple racism to the idea that areas with more economic potential are more valuable as allies or supplicants, so wealthy nations with the ability to do something will tend to focus their resources on areas that are more strategically vital or wealth-generating, so as to recoup their investment.Whatever the specifics and rationales, though, Sudan has long been conflict-prone, but this civil war seems to be locking the area into a state of total war—where nothing is off the table, and terror against civilians, and to a certain degree wiping out one's enemies completely, salting the earth, killing all the civilians so they can never threaten your force's dominance again, is becoming fundamental to everyone's military strategy—and that state of total war, in addition to be just horrific all by itself, also threatens to roil the rest of the area, including the far more globally integrated and thus well supported and funded Horn of Africa region, which is strategically vital for many nations, due to its adjacency to the Middle East and several vital ports, and the Sahel, which is a strip of land that stretches across the continent, just south of the Sahara desert, and which in modern history has been especially prone to military coups and periods of violence, at times verging on genocide, and which in recent decades has seen a bunch of democratic governments toppled and replaced by military juntas that have done their best to completely disempower all possible future opposition, at times by committing what look a lot like mini-genocides.This conflict, all by itself, then, is already one of the worst humanitarian situations the world has seen, but the confluence of international distraction—much of our attention and the majority of our resources focused on the also horrible situations in Gaza and Ukraine, and the specter of great power competitions that might arise as a result of Ukraine, or of China deciding to invade Taiwan—alongside the pullback from humanitarian funding, and the seeming distaste previously internationally involved entities, like the US and China, now seem to have when it comes to playing peacemaker, or attempted peacemaker, in these sorts of conflicts.All of which would seem to make it a lot more likely that this conflict, and others like it, will continue to play out, and may even reach a scale that permanently scars Sudan and its people, and which possibly even cascades into a series of regional conflicts, some interconnected, and some merely inspired by the brazenness they can clearly see across the border, and the seeming lack of consequences for those committing these sorts of atrocities in order to attain more power and control.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darfur_genocidehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudanese_civil_war_(2023%E2%80%93present)https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/09/sudan-civil-war-humanitarian-crisis/683563/?gift=201cWZnM2XBz2eP81zy0pG9Zt_k9jZnrEhnY7lvH1ZQhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/08/13/sudan-humanitarian-global-world-order-neglect-conflict/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/19/world/africa/sudan-usaid-famine.htmlhttps://www.reuters.com/world/africa/world-food-programme-reduce-food-support-sudan-due-funding-shortages-2025-04-25/https://www.eurasiareview.com/25042025-sudan-war-is-a-global-crisis-in-the-making-analysis/https://apnews.com/article/un-sudan-darfur-war-anniversary-paramilitary-government-dbfff6244d935f595fb7649a87a6e073https://newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/sudans-world-warhttps://news.un.org/en/story/2025/04/1162576https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/04/1162096https://reliefweb.int/report/sudan/sudan-situation-map-weekly-regional-update-18-aug-2025https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2wryz4gw7ohttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/opinion/sudan-genocide-famine.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudanese_revolutionhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudanese_civil_war_(2023%E2%80%93present)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Sudanese_coup_d%27%C3%A9tathttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudan_People%27s_Liberation_Movement%E2%80%93Northhttps://www.crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-africa/sudan/stopping-sudans-descent-full-blown-civil-warhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coups_d%27%C3%A9tat_in_Sudan This is a public episode.

Une nouvelle vague du cinéma soudanais a émergé depuis 2019, portant les fruits de ce qui a été amorcé en 2010 comme un renouveau du mouvement cinématographique au Soudan. Quelques films remarquables ont précédé et accompagné la chute du régime d'Omar el-Béchir. La révolution artistique était déjà en marche. Parler des arbres, le documentaire de Suhaib Gasmelbari a été tourné d'une manière indépendante et sans autorisation préalable du pouvoir en place. Ce pouvoir avait fermé les salles de cinéma pour plaire aux islamistes. Il a exclu toute aide à la production. Pourtant, le jeune cinéma a pointé son nez et a fait sa sortie au grand jour, en même temps que le Hirak, le mouvement de la population dans les rues de Khartoum. En février 2019, le premier film de Suhaib Gasmelbari, Parler des arbres, est récompensé du prix du meilleur documentaire à la Berlinale. Son réalisateur accompagne avec tact quatre cinéastes soudanais de l'ancienne génération, qui essaient de projeter des films à travers le pays malgré l'interdiction imposée par le pouvoir. Et cette génération ne cesse de récolter des prix et annonce ainsi la naissance d'une nouvelle ère du cinéma soudanais. La même année, Tu mourras à 20 ans, d'Amjad Abou Alla, un premier film également, poétique et puissant, est projeté à la Mostra de Venise. Il sera très bien accueilli par les critiques. Depuis, une série de films marquants se fraient une place sur la scène internationale. Goodbye Julia de Mohamed Kordofani est l'exemple le plus parlant. Il a été projeté au Festival de Cannes en 2023 dans la compétition « Un certain regard ». Il a eu le prix de la mise en scène, ainsi que le prix parallèle de la liberté, avant de récolter au total 62 prix. Il raconte la déchirure du Soudan, à travers l'histoire de deux femmes au moment de la séparation du Soudan du Sud : « Le Soudan est un pays qui a toujours été intellectuellement fermé. Il a été toujours présent dans les bulletins d'informations avec des images d'atrocités et de destruction. Depuis notre indépendance, on passe d'une guerre à l'autre… Je pense que l'une des raisons du succès de mon film, est le fait qu'il soit mondialement apprécié, c'est parce que je montre le quotidien et la vie du citoyen. Cela donne au spectateur un accès au côté humain d'un Soudanais et permet de comprendre les dynamiques qui conditionnent ses relations avec les autres ». Les femmes ont fait leur entrée massivement dans le domaine. Elles expérimentent à leur tour cette liberté acquise. Sara Suliman, explore dans son documentaire Corps héroïques (2022), un thème jadis tabou : « Dans Corps héroïques, nous évoquons les corps et les mouvements du corps dans le mouvement féministe soudanais. Il était très important pour moi d'utiliser le mot corps dans le titre. C'est un mot sur lequel il y a beaucoup d'objection. Lors des entretiens pour le film, j'ai senti que les invitées de l'ancienne génération ont été un peu gênées de l'employer. Elles avaient des réserves, avec toujours ce sentiment que le corps implique un seul sens, celui de la sexualité. Il était donc très important de mettre fin à ses réserves et de changer toutes les choses négatives liées à ce mot. Il est très important de libérer les mots avant de libérer le corps ». Le conflit soudanais de 2023, a contraint cependant de nombreux cinéastes à s'exiler. Sara Suleiman vit actuellement à Londres. Mohamed Kordofani est à Bahrein, où il finalise l'écriture de son second film. Quant à Amjad Abou Alla, qui l'a produit, il est au Caire et travaille également sur deux nouveaux films. L'un d'eux se passe à Khartoum et se déroule sur une seule journée. Le nouveau cinéma soudanais est un cinéma d'espoir. L'espoir est son dénominateur commun. Au-delà des films, l'espoir est la devise la plus chère au peuple soudanais. À lire aussiL'émergence d'un cinéma soudanais depuis la Révolution [1/2]

A decades-long manhunt closed in on international terrorist Illich Ramirez Sanchez, aka Carlos the Jackal, on 14th August, 1994 - when he was sedated and kidnapped by French intelligence agents in Khartoum, Sudan, following a tip-off by the CIA. Affiliated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the Organization for Armed Arab Struggle, and the Japanese Red Army, the Venezuelan militant had been responsible for a slew of major terrorist attacks in the 1970s and 80s, notably the storming of an OPEC meeting in 1975, during which he took hostages and demanded ransoms, and was widely considered the world's most-wanted man.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how ‘Carlos' came to acquire not just one, but two nicknames; consider how the politics of the day enabled both his terrorism and his womanising; and reveal why his sperm count ultimately cost him his freedom… Further Reading: • ‘SUDAN SEIZES TERRORIST 'CARLOS THE JACKAL'' (The Washington Post, 1994): https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1994/08/16/sudan-seizes-terrorist-carlos-the-jackal/4e8d3daa-b064-4ca7-ba16-e6f0d68744aa/?itid=sr_2 • ‘Carlos the Jackal: The Extraordinary Life of the Most Notorious Terrorist Before Bin Laden' (Vice, 2022): https://www.vice.com/en/article/4awdbq/carlos-the-jackal-communist-terrorist • ‘'Carlos the Jackal' convicted in France' (AlJazeera English, 2011): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2sUuxYcdro This episode first aired in 2023 Love the show?

It's been over two years since fighting between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Force broke out. Since then, upwards of 12 million people have been displaced – 8 million within the country--the rest made their way out to neighbouring countries like South Sudan and Chad. Guest host Catherine Cullen speaks with Saydah Mustafa, a Sudanese-Canadian, about fleeing Khartoum and how she is rebuilding her life two years later.

Israel seizes Gaza-bound aid ship "Israeli forces stormed the Gaza-bound aid ship Handala after it sent a distress call, detaining 21 activists on board. Live video streams from the vessel were cut mid-raid as soldiers took control. The ship is being towed to Ashdod, with activists expected to be deported. The fate of the crew remains unclear." Israel announces short pause of its Gaza attacks "Israel says it will pause fighting in Gaza on Sunday from 10 a.m. to evening to allow aid into what it calls as “humanitarian centres.” The brief halt comes amid rising international pressure over the deepening crisis in the besieged Palestinian enclave. " RSF-led coalition announces parallel government in Sudan "Sudan's RSF paramilitary has declared its own government, defying the army and risking further partition. RSF leader Hemedti unveiled the administration in western Sudan, where his forces hold sway. The army, which controls Khartoum, has vowed to crush the move, escalating a war already tearing the country apart." Türkiye signs deal to supply 48 KAAN fighter jets to Indonesia "Türkiye has signed an agreement to deliver 48 KAAN fighter jets to Indonesia in a landmark defence partnership. The deal includes joint production, engineering collaboration, and technology transfer, with deliveries scheduled over the next 10 years. Officials hailed the signing as a “historic moment” for bilateral defence ties, deepening cooperation between the two nations." "Nigeria pull off stunning comeback to win WAFCON " "Nigeria roared back from 2-0 down to beat hosts Morocco 3-2 and clinch a record 10th Women's Africa Cup of Nations. Goals from Okoronkwo, Ijamilusi, and late hero Echegini sealed a dramatic win in Rabat. The Super Falcons remain Africa's undisputed queens of football."

In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined by analyst and researcher Sarra Majdoub to take a closer look at Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and their evolving military and political objectives. They discuss the RSF's recent loss of control in Khartoum to the Sudanese Armed Forces, and the group's strategic pivot toward consolidating power in Darfur and the Kordofan regions even as those areas suffer from a deepening humanitarian crisis. They unpack the RSF's emerging new political strategy, including their recent alliance with the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N) and efforts to establish a parallel government with allied armed groups. They also discuss the RSF's new long-range drone capabilities and why the group decided to escalate the conflict by launching strikes into eastern Sudan, including on Port Sudan. Finally, they explore whether the RSF is preparing for a lengthy war and protracted stalemate, if the group is positioning for a negotiated settlement to the war, or both.

L'Unesco s'est alarmée à plusieurs reprises d'un « niveau sans précédent » des « menaces sur la culture » au Soudan, s'appuyant sur les rapports de « pillages de musées, de sites patrimoniaux et archéologiques et de collections privées ». On en parle avec notre grande invitée Afrique ce samedi : Ikhlas Abdel Latif, directrice des musées à l'Autorité nationale des antiquités du Soudan, présente à Paris fin juin, pour participer à une réunion sur les vestiges historiques pillés ou menacés dans certains pays comme le Soudan, le Yémen ou la Libye. Ikhlas Abdel Latif affirme que tous les musées nationaux et privés dans les zones contrôlées par les paramilitaires des Forces de soutien rapide ont été pillés. Selon elle, il s'agit d'un « pillage organisé ».  RFI : Pourriez-vous nous mettre au courant de la destruction qui a touché le secteur des musées et du patrimoine au Soudan ? Ikhlas Abdel Latif : Il est certain que les infractions, la destruction et le pillage qui ont affecté les sites archéologiques et historiques tout comme les musées ont été une pratique répandue à grande échelle. À Khartoum il y a 13 musées qui dépendent de l'Autorité générale des antiquités et des musées du Soudan. Mais il y a d'autres musées, comme le Musée militaire, le Musée du Palais présidentiel, le Musée d'Histoire naturelle… Ils sont rattachés à nous, car nous avons une responsabilité technique et artistique sur tout le secteur des musées au Soudan. L'Autorité générale pour les antiquités et les musées est officiellement responsable de tous les musées au Soudan. Et donc, tous ces musées à Khartoum ont été vandalisés ? Tous les musées qui ont été sous contrôle de la milice des Forces de soutien rapide ont été pillés, y compris celui d'histoire naturelle, qui abritait des animaux rares vivants. Il a été détruit. Ce qui a entrainé la mort de ces animaux. De même pour le musée de la Guerre où une grande partie des chars historiques a été détruite. Celui du Palais républicain a également été dévasté. Tous ces musées sont situés dans la région de Khartoum. Parmi les musées affiliés officiellement à l'Autorité générale des antiquités et des musées, il y a celui de l'Ethnographie, qui représentait les tribus et l'identité du Soudan dans sa diversité, tout en mettant en valeur l'unité à travers cette diversité. Il a été entièrement ravagé. Quant au Musée du Khalife Abdulah al-Taachi d'Omdurman, qui retrace une partie de la colonisation ottomane, et jusqu'à la libération, il a été partiellement détruit.  Le musée national de Khartoum n'a pas non plus échappé à ce sort, des trésors inestimables, 100 000 pièces ont disparu ? Le Musée national soudanais à Khartoum est le plus grand du pays et l'un des plus importants. Il a été totalement pillé et vandalisé. Il abrite le plus grand entrepôt d'antiquités soudanaises. Le contenu du musée ainsi que l'entrepôt ont été pillés. Les objets n'étaient pas en exposition, mais emballés et disposés dans des caisses en raison des travaux en cours avant la guerre pour réhabiliter le lieu. Ce qui a facilité le pillage des pièces habituellement exposées. Quant au dépôt, il s'agit du plus grand des antiquités du Soudan. Malheureusement, les salles de stockage, également pillées, contenaient la plus grande quantité d'or du Royaume de Koshe. Tout cet or a été volé. Parmi les musées les plus importants également touchés, il y a celui de Nyala, au Darfour, le plus important de la région ? À Khartoum et sa région, nous avons des équipes qui travaillent à évaluer les pertes, mais en ce qui concerne les musées de Nyala et d'el-Geneina, ils sont toujours sous contrôle de la milice des FSR, tout ce que l'on sait, c'est que toutes les pièces du patrimoine qui se trouvaient à el-Geneina, ainsi qu'au musée privé du Sultan Bahr Eddine appartenant à la tribu Massalit, une tribu menacée par la milice, ont été entièrement pillées. Leur propre résidence l'a été également et les effets personnels de la famille du Sultan Bahr Eddine ont été emportés. Le musée de Nyala est considéré comme un musée national à l'échelle de la région du Darfour. Même les vitrines d'exposition ont été pillées et la milice y réside toujours. Il y a encore des musées que les Forces de soutien rapide utilisent comme résidence pour leurs hommes armés, ce qui expose les lieux et leur contenu à des dommages irréparables ? Oui, en effet, c'est bien ce que j'ai mentionné, le musée de Nyala est considéré comme leur siège. Le musée est au Darfour qui n'est pas encore libéré de leur présence. Les FSR sont une milice primitive qui ne comprend rien à la valeur de ces vestiges, à l'archéologie et à l'histoire. Alors oui, ils volent ces antiquités de manière systématique et étudiée : seules les antiquités distinctives et de très grande valeur ont été volées. Qui voulez-vous accuser ? Ceux qui financent les FSR et qui sont derrière eux. Je n'en dirai pas plus. Vous avez formé un comité pour récupérer et suivre les vestiges pillés ? J'ai formé ce comité en tant que présidente de la direction des musées, et la présidente de l'unité de suivi des vestiges pillés. Il y a un directeur sur le terrain à Khartoum. Ce comité s'occupe de tous les musées libérés dans la zone de Khartoum, et travaille sur l'évaluation des dommages. Il dresse l'inventaire de ce qui a été pillé et de ce qui reste. En même temps, il s'occupe aussi de la protection de ce qui reste. Espérez-vous récupérer ces objets pillés ? Nous y travaillons d'arrache-pied. Nous faisons tout notre possible. Depuis août 2023, nous avons pris rapidement des mesures pour surveiller ce qui se passe. L'Autorité générale des antiquités et des musées travaille main dans la main avec le gouvernement comme avec le procureur général, l'antenne locale d'Interpol, la police, la justice et le ministère des Affaires étrangères. Nous œuvrons tous à ce que la communauté internationale sache ce qui se passe à ce niveau. Nos partenaires à l'étranger ont proposé effectivement leur aide. Ils ont tous manifesté leur intérêt à l'échelle mondiale. Est-il vrai que l'on trouve ces vestiges en vente en ligne sur certains sites ? Je tiens à préciser que nos antiquités, jusqu'à maintenant n'ont pas fait leur apparition en ligne ou dans les maisons de ventes aux enchères. Ce qui indique le contrôle du gouvernement du Soudan, sur l'acheminement de ces objets volés. Nous considérons que c'est un pillage en règle pour détruire l'identité du Soudan. Ces vestiges ne sont pas uniquement un héritage soudanais, mais c'est aussi un legs international et humain. Le Soudan regorge de pièces qui portent non seulement l'histoire de la civilisation au Soudan, mais qui font également partie de l'héritage de l'humanité. Ces vestiges sont notre héritage et montrent notre union, nos liens et notre identité. Au Soudan nous avons plus de sept pays voisins, c'est l'un des plus grands pays d'Afrique et il faut savoir que la multiplicité des tribus chez nous fait partie d'un seul moule, celui de notre civilisation ancienne, la civilisation Koushite qui nous lie tous. Il s'agit donc d'une guerre systématique contre l'identité du peuple soudanais. Y a-t-il un mot pour conclure ? Oui, j'aimerais juste lancer un appel à la communauté internationale. Tous nos partenaires mondiaux sont à nos côtés, mais je réitère mon appel à cette communauté, aux Nations unies, à l'Unesco, pour qu'ils rappellent une nouvelle fois l'interdiction de faire commerce de toute œuvre du patrimoine historique du peuple soudanais. Et de multiplier la lutte contre le trafic illicite de ces vestiges.

It's Tuesday, July 15th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Sudanese Christians in the crosshairs Sudanese Christian churches are being systematically destroyed by military forces.   According to Christian Solidarity Worldwide, a persecution watchdog, the Rapid Support Forces bombed the Sudanese Episcopal Church, the African Inland Church, and the Roman Catholic Church in Al-Fashir, the capital of North Darfur State just last month. And the Sudan Armed Forces destroyed a Pentecostal church complex in Khartoum last week. Persecuted Chinese church perseveres Chinese Pastor Wang Yi's church has continued moving ahead despite their pastor's arrest and 9-year-prison sentence.   According to China Aid director, Bob Fu, they have planted two additional churches,  Praise God that the Chinese House Church movement is growing. That's not the only thing growing.  So is the homeschooling movement, reports World Magazine in an article entitled, “Hard choices ahead for homeschoolers in China.” Kentucky church shooter killed 2 women, wounded policeman The suspect in a church shooting in Lexington, Kentucky, has been identified as 47-year-old Guy House.

Two other church members were also wounded in the shooting, reports The-Independent.com. Revelation 13:10 leaves us this promise: “He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.” Pro-perversion and pro-abortion European group targets Christians The European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights has issued a report attacking the Christian faith.  It was funded by George Soros and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The report cites the enemy, by listing Christian people and organizations who represent traditional Christian values. Paul Coleman, Director of Alliance Defending Freedom International,  called the report “a thinly veiled attempt to silence ideological opponents under the guise of academic research,” reports Hungary Today. Bitcoin doubled in value in one year The value of one Bitcoin has topped $120,000, reports NBC News. That's almost exactly double what it was just a year ago, and twelve times the value of five years ago.   Gold is up 40% over a year ago, and silver is up 28%. Ground beef hit $6.67 a pound on a national basis last week. That's a 3-fold increase from where it was in 2010 at $2.20 a pound. And the size of the national herd of cows has dropped to 86.7 million head. That's the lowest level since 1951. Russia using 3,450 drones against Ukraine per month Russia has stepped up its drone attacks on Ukraine since the beginning of the year, now averaging 3,450 drones per month. That's up from about 1,000 drones per month in 2024.   A total of 136 drones were counted Sunday night over Ukraine. President Donald Trump announced yesterday, the United States would be providing more Patriot missiles to Ukraine, for shooting down Russian missiles. Judge blocks defunding of Planned Parenthood in new law A federal district judge has arbitrarily blocked the defunding of Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider.   Judge Indira Talwani's order purports to force the Trump administration to defy a federal law passed by the U.S. Congress and signed by the President. Supreme Court gives Trump green light to dismantle Dept of Education Yesterday, the US Supreme Court issued a decision allowing for the Trump administration's plan to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education, reports NBC News.   In a 6-3 vote, the high court allows for Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to fire 1,400 employees — amounting to about half of the department workforce. Trump's 2026 budget funds 2,179 employees compared to 4,099 working during the 2024 fiscal year. More young adults lean Republican Young people are moving Republican. A new Yale Youth Poll finds 18 to 21-year-olds leaning Republican by 12 points, while the older group of 22 to 29-year-olds still favor Democrats by 6.4 points.  Trump reflects on assassination attempt anniversary Yesterday, President Donald Trump reminisced on how his life was saved from the assassin's bullet a year ago in this exchange with a reporter. REPORTER: “On this one year anniversary of Butler, what was going through your mind this morning when you woke up. I know that you're praising God you're alive, but a lot of people want to know how you've taken this day on this one year anniversary.” TRUMP: “God was protecting me, maybe because God wanted to see our country do better, or do really well, make America great again. But God was protecting me, Brian, I'll tell you. I have a job to do, so I don't like to think about it much. It's a little bit of a dangerous profession, being President.” Proverbs 19:21 reminds us of God's sovereign hand over all of our doings: “Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.” What are the most and least rewarding college disciplines? What's the best bang for the college enrollment buck? A recent study found that for best starting pay and employment numbers, Civil engineering, Construction Services, Aerospace Engineering, and Nursing are the best majors. By contrast, Anthropology, Sociology, and Fine Arts are the worst for starting pay. Pastor John MacArthur died And finally, this just in. Pastor John MacArthur has passed on to glory, reports The Christian Post. Recognized worldwide, as a definitive leader among conservative Evangelicals and reformed Christianity, Pastor John led Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California for 56 years. Remarkably, he authored nearly 400 book titles. He preached the authority of Scripture and was defiant in the face of ongoing COVID-19 lockdowns. The MacArthur Study Bible sold two million copies, and his commentary series sold another one million copies. Master's Seminary, over which John MacArthur presided, enrolls 700 men, and his sermons are still heard over 1,000 radio stations across America through the Grace to You ministry. Listen as he eloquently explains the spiritual significance of the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. MacARTHUR: “Second Corinthians 5:21 – ‘He made Him who knew no sin, sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.'  Let me unpack those 15 Greek words. He, God, made Jesus sin. What do you mean He made Jesus sin? Only in one sense. He treated him as if He had committed every sin ever committed by every person who would ever believe, though, in fact, he committed none of them. “Hanging on the cross, He was holy, harmless, undefiled. Hanging on the cross, he was a spotless lamb. He was never, for a split second, a sinner. He is holy God on the cross, but God is treating him -- I'll put it more practically -- as if He lived my life. God punished Jesus for my sin, turns right around and treats me as if I lived His life. “That's the great doctrine of substitution. And on that doctrine turned the whole reformation of the church. That is the heart of the Gospel. “And what you get is complete forgiveness, covered by the righteousness of Jesus Christ. When He looks at the cross, He sees you. When He looks at you, He sees Christ.” On the Grace to You ministry's X account, they posted, "Our hearts are heavy, yet rejoicing, as we share the news that our beloved pastor and teacher John MacArthur has entered into the presence of the Savior. This evening, his faith became sight." Pastor John is survived by his wife, Patricia Smith MacArthur; children Matt, Mark, Marcy, and Melinda; 15 grandchildren, and nine great-grandchildren. He was 86 years old at his death.  And we may add, Pastor John MacArthur was a big encouragement to the Generations Ministry and our publications ministry over the last few years. Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, July 15th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Introduced in 2003, statutory paternity leave, allows most new fathers and second parents in the UK to take up to two weeks off work. As a result, according to a new report from the Institute for Policy Research at the University of Bath, women continue to shoulder most of the care burden after childbirth. The report calls on the UK government to introduce six weeks of well-paid paternity leave, arguing the move would promote gender equality, support working families and boost economic growth. Nuala McGovern is joined by co-author of that report Dr Joanna Clifton-Sprigg.This summer, women's sport takes centre stage across the BBC and especially here on Woman's Hour where we'll be keeping you up to date across all the action.

She is joined by Yousra Elbagir, Sky News' Africa Correspondent who will explain the significance of that sit-in in 2019 and why the war in Sudan shouldn't be dismissed as just another civil war but as an uprising that affects us all more globally. The women's Euros start this week, with teams from both England and Wales taking part. The Lionesses won the Euros in 2022 and much was made of the number of openly lesbian players both in the England squad and across the other teams.

The New Yorker recently published a report from Sudan, headlined “Escape from Khartoum.” The contributor Nicolas Niarchos journeyed for days through a conflict to reach a refugee camp in the Nuba Mountains, where members of the country's minority Black ethnic groups are seeking safety, but remain imperilled by hunger. The territory is “very significant to the Nuba people,” Niarchos explains to David Remnick. “They feel safe being there because they have managed to resist genocide before by hiding in these mountains. And then you start seeing the children with their distended bellies, and you start hearing the stories of the people who fled.” The civil war pits the Sudanese Army against a militia group called the Rapid Support Forces. Once allies in ousting Sudan's former President, the Army and the R.S.F. now occupy different parts of the country, destroying infrastructure in the opposing group's territory, and committing atrocities against civilians: killing, starvation, and widespread, systematic sexual violence. The warring parties are dominated by Sudan's Arabic-speaking majority, and “there's this very, very toxic combination of both supremacist ideology,” Niarchos says, and “giving ‘spoils' to troops instead of paying them.” One of Niarchos's sources, a man named Wanis, recalls an R.S.F. soldier telling him, “If you go to the Nuba Mountains, we'll reach you there. You Nuba, we're supposed to kill you like dogs.”

Au menu de l'actualité :

C'est ce qu'ont annoncé hier les Nations unies après plus de deux ans de guerre civile. Et à ce triste chiffre, il faut en ajouter un autre, rappelle Al Jazeera : « Dix millions et demi de personnes environ sont des déplacés internes ». En deux ans, loin de s'être atténuée, « la violence s'est intensifiée » rappelle encore le titre, particulièrement « dans la région occidentale du Darfour (...) aggravant la faim dans la zone ». Et l'aide humanitaire ne suffit pas – d'autant que les convois sont parfois attaqués, comme lundi sur la route d'El-Fasher.  De nombreux autres fléauxDans tous les secteurs, la guerre entraîne son lot de catastrophes… Dans un autre article,Al Jazeera toujours, pointe l'épidémie de choléra qui frappe le pays. Dans la région de Khartoum, « de nombreux 'retournés' ont commencé à tomber malades ». Beaucoup d'entre eux s'étaient installés à Omdourman, en face de la capitale… « la ville est rapidement devenue surpeuplée » se désole Al Jazeera, « ce qui a entraîné une propagation accélérée du choléra » … Au point, raconte un témoin interrogé par le journal « que de nombreux corps se décomposent dans le Nil, ou dans ses environs » … Ce qui en retour aggrave encore la contagion, puisque le choléra se transmet en ingérant de l'eau contaminée. Les malades se précipitent ensuite dans des hôpitaux surchargés, aggravant encore le problème. Dans les médias aussi, « le paysage est sinistre », et c'est cette fois The Sudan Tribune qui le dit. « Autrefois épicentre du journalisme national, la capitale [Khartoum] abrite désormais des bureaux vidés de leur substance et des studios brisés » se désole le quotidien. À l'exception de la radio et de la télévision nationales, tous les médias ont été « réduits à des coquilles vides (…), où résonne l'effondrement de ce qui fut une presse vibrante ». Il y a bien sûr le coût financier des destructions et des pillages – les logiciels, le matériel perdu, les bibliothèques sonores. Mais il y a surtout une chose, inestimable : « notre voix, notre présence » se souvient le directeur d'une radio populaire… « maintenant, il n'y a plus que le silence ».  Du mieux entre Martin Fayulu et Félix Tshisekedi, en RDC L'opposant Martin Fayulu a proposé lundi une rencontre avec le président Félix Tshiskedi; ce dernier a dit oui et est même allé plus loin, relate Actualite.cd, puisqu'il a « salué le patriotisme et le sens d'engagement pour la cohésion nationale affichés » par son adversaire. C'est en tout cas, s'étonne Le Potentiel, un changement radical de posture pour un chef politique dont « l'intransigeance (…) envers le pouvoir de Félix Tshisekedi a longtemps été caractéristique ». Il est encore bien « trop tôt » pour parler d' « alliance » analyse de son côté le correspondant de la Deutsche Welle en RDC, mais tout de même : si cette rencontre a bien lieu, elle marquera un « signe de pardon » entre les deux hommes. Ce prélude au rabibochage montre-t-il, comme le pense Le Potentiel, « la volonté de faire des concessions » du président ? Aujourd'hui au Faso semble plutôt pencher pour le bon sens : si Félix Tshiskedi accepte de rencontrer Martin Fayulu, c'est bien que ce dernier « a dit des choses sensées » et « qu'il est sérieux » croit savoir le titre burkinabè… mais aussi, peut-être, qu'il joue sa survie politique « s'il ne saisit pas cette main de Fayulu dont il a besoin de nos jours ». Un perdant dans ce rapprochementUn perdant du nom de Joseph Kabila, qui a refait surface à Goma dans l'est il y a quelques jours. Le Potentiel estime en tout cas qu'il s'agit là d'un « coup dur » pour l'ancien chef d'État et sa « posture belliqueuse » - le journal estime que Fayulu fait, au contraire, preuve d'une « approche constructive ». Aujourd'hui au Faso ne dit pas autre chose lorsqu'il juge que l'opposant « se pose en médiateur » là où, analyse Le Point Afrique, Joseph Kabila « intrigue, inquiète, et divise ».Mais il ne faut pas trop se perdre en conjectures… pour l'heure, au-delà des déclarations politiques, rien n'a été décidé, fixé, organisé… or, conclut la Deutsche Welle, « ce n'est pas la première fois que Martin Fayulu tend la main au président Félix Thisekedi (…). Ce que la coalition attend donc, c'est la concrétisation de ce rendez-vous ».

Các tổ chức cứu trợ cảnh báo rằng Sudan đang bên bờ vực của một thảm họa y tế công toàn diện sau khi dịch tả bùng phát tại thủ đô Khartoum. Bộ Y tế Sudan cho biết hơn 170 người đã chết vì căn bệnh này chỉ trong một tuần.

Aid groups have warned Sudan is on the brink of a full scale public health disaster after an outbreak of cholera in the country's capital Khartoum. Sudan's Health Ministry reports more than 170 people have died of the disease in one week.

The civil war in Sudan has been ongoing for more than two years causing some fifteen million people to be displaced and the collapse of the country's healthcare system in many places. In the capital Khartoum, there were once nearly 100 public and private medical facilities, now none are operational. We go to Khartoum to see how residents are coping with the lack of medical care.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

“My responsibilities as a captain became more… A player would receive a call telling him he'd lost a brother or a relative or a dear one.”After war broke out in Sudan, the football team Al Hilal Omdurman had to flee from Khartoum like many of those around them. They spent months looking for a new home, but eventually were welcomed to Mauritania where they have played competitively in the league there. They've now finished top of the league with two games to play. In this final episode of Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja looks at how footballers and athletes have continued to compete at the highest levels – despite facing tragedy and loss.GUESTS: Al Hilal captain Mohamed Abdelrahman Al Hilal Executive secretary Yasir Hassan, Sudan's National Olympics Committee President Ahmed Hashim.From next week, you can hear stories from Africa on the Focus on Africa Podcast.

Dans le supplément de ce samedi, deux reportages consacrés à la guerre qui sévit depuis trois ans au Soudan. En deuxième partie, nous sommes dans l'est du Tchad, des centaines de milliers de Soudanais s'y sont réfugiés depuis le début du conflit. Mais pour commencer, c'est bien au Soudan en guerre que l'on retrouve notre envoyée spéciale.  À Khartoum : la guerre et le chaosAu Soudan, la guerre est entrée dans sa troisième année. Trois ans que s'affrontent l'armée du général Abdel Fattah al-Burhan et les Forces de soutien rapide, des paramilitaires dirigés par le général Mohammed Hamdan Daglo, alias Hemedti. Aujourd'hui, le Soudan est divisé en deux : l'armée domine le nord et l'est, tandis que le sud-ouest, avec notamment l'immense région du Darfour, est aux mains des FSR. La guerre au Soudan est considérée par l'ONU comme la plus grave crise humanitaire du moment. 13 millions de Soudanais ont fui les conflits. Aujourd'hui, certains tentent de rentrer chez eux, mais ne trouvent que désolation.Un Grand reportage de Gaëlle Laleix qui s'entretient avec François Ballarin.Survivre dans les camps de réfugiés soudanais de l'est tchadienNous partons pour l'est du Tchad, terre d'accueil de centaines de milliers de réfugiés soudanais. Ils ont fui cette guerre interne qui fait rage depuis le 15 avril 2023 au Soudan. À cette date, les Forces de soutien rapide (FSR) menées par le général « Hemedti » se soulèvent contre l'armée régulière soudanaise du général al-Buhran. Les FSR, majoritairement composées de milices arabes janjawid, la garde prétorienne de l'ex-président Omar el-Béchir, déchaînent leur violence au Darfour où elles sont actives depuis plusieurs décennies. 775 000 Soudanais ont fui vers le Tchad voisin : en grande majorité des femmes et des enfants Masalit, une communauté non arabe du Darfour.Un Grand reportage de Victor Mauriat qui s'entretient avec François Ballarin.

It's been more than two years since civil war exploded in Sudan. By some estimates the conflict has killed as many as 150-thousand people, and displaced millions more. In April, NPR International Correspondent Emmanuel Akinwotu gained rare access to the capital city, Khartoum, and reports how the once vibrant city of 6 million has been ravaged by war.

Ongoing Russian attacks in Ukraine force frontline areas to empty: UNHCRAid teams reach desperate families in Khartoum: WFPMyanmar quake survivors almost defenceless against disease threat: WHO

The crisis in Sudan is taking another devastating turn. Over the past several days, a genocidal paramilitary group known as the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has attacked a sprawling refugee camp in Darfur. As I write this, nearly 400,000 people have fled the camp and are now traversing the desert in search of safety. Meanwhile, the RSF is mounting an offensive on the last major city in Darfur not under its control. This escalation comes as the world rather quietly marked the second anniversary of Sudan's civil war. In April 2022, two rival generals vied for control of the country, plunging it into chaos. Two years on, Sudan has become the world's largest humanitarian crisis, with over 12 million people forcibly displaced from their homes. One of them is Dalia Abdel Moneim. She fled her home in Khartoum shortly after the war began and is now living in Cairo. She joined me for a conversation about the unfolding catastrophe in Sudan.

Sudan’s civil war has entered its third year. The Sudanese military has retaken the capital, Khartoum, but fighting is escalating in Darfur, where the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group is attacking the country’s largest camp for displaced people. As the humanitarian crisis deepens, is there any hope for peace?

The Sudanese capital, Khartoum, April 15th 2023. Families who'd gathered to celebrate Eid together woke up to gunfire and explosions as a power struggle erupted between two factions of the military led government. There were clashes at the presidential palace, at the airport and at the TV station.

The UNHCR says nearly 13 million people have been displaced by the conflict.In the first of a series of two podcasts to mark the anniversary, Mpho Lakaje talks to Sudan's former deputy intelligence chief, analyst Dr Majak D'Agoot, and asks if we are now in a stalemate, and what the aims of the two sides are.

Counter-terrorism police investigate fire at Heathrow power station. Also: Sudan's army recaptures presidential palace in Khartoum and Abercrombie & Fitch's former boss is accused of abuse by 40 men.

Heathrow, one of the world's largest airports, has shut down after a fire broke out Thursday night at an electric substation, effectively knocking out the airport's power. We hear about the potential causes behind the fire at the substation and how vulnerable airports are to these kinds of incidents. Also, in Sudan, pro-government troops have retaken control of the presidential palace in Khartoum. The palace was previously held by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, who say the battle is not over yet. This would be a major symbolic victory for the Sudanese military, if the palace takeover is confirmed. Also, the effort to return political pluralism to Poland's federal government. And, the American doughnut shops with roots in Cambodia.Listen to today's Music Heard on Air. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
