As Prime Minister Mark Carney heads for the G20 Summit in South Africa, his trip to the United Arab Emirates proved to be one focused on strengthening diplomatic ties and potential foreign investment relations.However, mention of the UAE's alleged involvement in the war in Sudan was something many Canadians and human rights activists felt was missing from the trip's itinerary.Amnesty International claims credible sources have found the UAE to be in violation of the United Nations' arms embargo to Sudan's Darfur region, something the UAE repeatedly denies. The Sudanese war broke out in 2023, as its army battles for power against a paramilitary group, the Rapid Support Forces. More than 150,000 lives have been claimed.Host Maria Kestane speaks to Glen McGregor, political correspondent for CityNews to break down the implications of Carney's trip to the Middle East, and how the omission for holding the UAE accountable could have consequences for Canada's humanitarian image.

William Law's guest this week is Caroline Rose, an expert in tracking the production and distribution of Captagon. The fall of the Assad regime and its Captagon empire has opened up new hubs for the drug. One of those is Sudan. In a country trapped in a vicious civil war there is growing evidence that one side in the conflict, the UAE-backed RSF, is exploiting the Assad overthrow and a Captagon hungry Gulf market to become an emerging hub.

Sudán se desangra lejos de las portadas. 500 personas asesinadas en un hospital materno, más de 11 millones de personas desplazadas, masacres a cielo abierto, hambruna y violaciones como parte de una estrategia de guerra. El conflicto entre el Ejército y las Fuerzas de Apoyo Rápido (RSF) ha convertido a l país en el lugar donde ocurre la mayor crisis humanitaria del planeta, mientras la comunidad internacional mira a otro lado. Ponemos el foco donde otros apartan la mirada con la ayuda del historiador Dagauh Komenan, profesor en la Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, la periodista Patricia Simón y Samy Guessabi, director de Acción Contra el Hambre en Sudán.

Pauline also reflected on the importance of critically attending to how we practice solidarity and community with disability justice at the core, and reminded us about this year's upcoming Disability Day special broadcast on the 3rd of December. Alice Wong was involved in establishing and organising with a myriad of disability justice initiatives, including most prominently the Disability Visibility Project and the Society of Disabled Oracles. Pauline mentioned a talk by Alice Wong as part of Assembly for the Future, broadcast as part of 3CR's 2020 Disability Day - listen to it here.// Fiona York, Executive Officer of Housing for the Aged Action Group, spoke with us about the ways that housing stress manifest for older people in the Victorian rental market, and how this relates both to poverty and to different types of rental tenure. Fiona unpacked the impact of the government's public housing high-rise redevelopment program and how it is already affecting older people living in the flats. Catch Fiona on 3CR's Raise the Roof program every Wednesday from 5:30-6PM, and hear her in conversation with other housing justice advocates in next week's 'From Housing Crisis to Dwelling Justice' event at RMIT University in the city.

Free Palestine Melbourne had written a letter to the Marriner Group, who manage and operate the Forum and five other popular venues, expressing their concerns about its decision to host ‘Infected Mushroom', but the Marriner Group ultimately declined requests to cancel the concert.// Liz, a doctor and member of Socialists in Healthcare, joined us to provide some updates on the campaign to Save Cohealth, including about upcoming events this week. During this conversation, Liz and Inez shared breaking news that Cohealth has secured emergency funding from the Albanese Government to allow community health centres at Collingwood, Fitzroy and Kensington to remain open until the 31st of July 2026. The fight is far from over, though, and campaigners are asking that people show up to the following events this week:Healthcare Workers Speakout tomorrow, Friday the 21st of November from 4:30PM opposite the Peter Mac Hospital in Haymarket, andSave Cohealth Fitzroy Protest on Sun the 23rd of November from 1PM, starting outside Cohealth Fitzroy (75 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy), with a march to the Health Minister's Office. Find out more and join the campaign here.// Dr Simon Bradshaw, COP31 Lead at Greenpeace Australia Pacific, joined us live from COP30 in Belém, Brazil with updates from the conference as it reaches its close. While Australia continues to angle for the privilege of hosting COP31, serious questions about climate finance commitments and concrete action on an end to fossil fuels remain unanswered. Simon has been a researcher, writer and campaigner for climate action for over two decades, attending many rounds of international climate negotiations. He was formerly Research Director at Climate-KIc Australia, and a climate specialist with Oxfam.//

Il Consiglio dei Diritti Umani dell' ONU ha deciso qualche giorno fa di aprire un' indagine “urgente” su omicidi e altre violazioni dei diritti umani nella città di El Fasher, attribuiti ai paramilitari delle Forze di supporto rapido (Rsf), in guerra dal 15 aprile 2023, contro l'esercito di Khartoum. In Sudan si continua a morire di fame e di violenza in un conflitto poco raccontato.Origine evoluzione e situazione umanitaria del Paese Africano, saranno al centro della puntata che grazie a testimonianze dirette ed analisti ci porterà più vicini alla realtà dei fatti: milioni di persone colpite dalla fame dallo sfollamento e dal crollo dei servizi essenziali.Emiliano Bos ci è stato.Matteo d' Alonzo Direttore del programma Emercency in Sudan, ci lavora.Irene Panozzo Studiosa analista, autrice di Sudan conosce molto bene questo paese e si trova su uno dei suoi confini.

In this episode of The Horn, Alan speaks with Julia Steers, investigations editor at Lighthouse Reports, about the large-scale atrocities that took place in Darfur's El Fasher after the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) captured the city from Sudan's army last month. They retrace how the RSF's seizure of El Fasher unfolded after months of siege and discuss what investigators have uncovered about the mass killings and widespread abuses that followed. They examine the scale and brutality of the attacks on civilians – many of them documented by the RSF themselves – and the ethnic pattern of the killings. They also explore the RSF's motivations for the apparent coordinated and systematic mass killing, and how the group has responded to the reporting on these atrocities.For more, check out Lighthouse Reports' publication “The Killing Fields of Al Fashir”, co-published with Sky News and Sudan War Monitor, our Hold Your Fire! episode “What Does the RSF's Seizure of El Fasher Mean for Sudan's War?” and our Sudan country page.

The civil war in Sudan has taken more than 150,000 lives. It has displaced at least 13 million people. The UN has confirmed famine in parts of the country. There is widespread malnutrition, especially among children. And peace is nowhere in sight. The two warring sides -- the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group under General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, have been fighting since April 2023. Last month, the RSF captured El Fasher city in Darfur, which used to be a SAF stronghold. It sparked a fresh wave of atrocities, deaths, rapes and displacement. A US-backed ceasefire proposal on the table, but Sudan remains a humanitarian black hole for now. What is behind this endless violence? Does the ceasefire proposal hold promise? What can be done to mitigate the humanitarian tragedy?  Guest: Stanly Johny, The Hindu's Internatinal Affairs Editor Host: G.

Sudan Civil War, Global Proxies, and Nigerian Violence. Caleb Weiss and Bill Roggio analyze the civil war in Sudan between the SAF and the RSF, noting both factions commit atrocities, including massacres after the capture of El Fasher. The conflict is fueled by opposing global coalitions: the UAE and Russia support the RSF, while Iran, Egypt, and Turkey back the SAF. The Islamic State has called for foreign jihadis to mobilize. Weiss also addresses the complicated violence in Nigeria, differentiating jihadist attacks on Christians from communal farmer-herder conflict.

SHOW 11-12-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1930 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT CHINA'S LEADERSHIP. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Allied AI Competition and Submarine Requests. Scott Harold examines the crucial role of allies Japan and South Korea in the AI competition against China. Japan is developing locally tailored AI models built on US technology for use in Southeast Asia. South Korea aims to become the third-largest AI power, offering reliable models to counter China's untrustworthy technology. Harold also discusses South Korea's surprising request for nuclear-powered, conventionally armed submarines to track Chinese and North Korean vessels, signaling a greater public willingness to contribute to China deterrence. 915-930 Rare Earths Monopoly and US Strategy. General Blaine Holt discusses China's challenge to the US and its allies regarding rare earths, noting that China previously threatened to cut off supply. The US is securing deals with partners like Australia and is on track to replace China entirely, despite initial processing reliance on Chinese predatory practices. Holt suggests a two-year recovery is conservative, as technology for domestic processing exists. He also notes China's leadership is in turmoil, trying to buy time through trade deals. 930-945 Russian Economic Stagnation and War Finance. Michael Bernstam confirms that the Russian economy is stagnating, expecting no growth for years due to exhausted resources and reliance on military production. Oil and gas revenues are down significantly due to Western sanctions and high discounts, widening the budget deficit. Russia is increasing taxes, including the VAT, which drives inflation in staples. This economic pain damages the popularity of the war by hurting the low-income population—the primary source of military recruitment. 945-1000 Buckley, Fusionism, and Conservative Integrity. Peter Berkowitz explores William F. Buckley's consolidation of the conservative movement through "fusionism"—blending limited government and social conservatism. Buckley purged the movement of anti-Semites based on core principles. Berkowitz uses this historical context to analyze the controversy surrounding Tucker Carlson giving a platform to Nick Fuentes, who openly celebrates Stalin and Hitler. This incident caused division after the Heritage Foundation's president, Kevin Roberts, defended Carlson, prompting Roberts to issue an apology. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Commodity Markets and UK Political Instability. Simon Constable analyzes rare earth markets, noting China's dominance is achieved through undercutting prices and buying out competitors. Prices for key industrial commodities like copper and aluminum are up, indicating high demand. Constable also discusses UK political instability, noting that Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer lacks natural leadership and confidence. The major political driver for a potential leadership change is the party's broken promise regarding income taxes, which severely undermines public trust before the next election, 1015-1030 Commodity Markets and UK Political Instability.

Carola Binder discusses the Austrian School of Economics, highlighting its focus on free markets and Ludwig von Mises's opposition to government "interventionism," including rent and price controls. Mises argued these policies distort markets, leading to shortages and inefficiency. Binder emphasizes Mises's belief that economic literacy is a primary civic duty necessary for citizens to reject socialism and interventionist panaceas, especially as new generations are exposed to such ideas. 1045-1100 Austrian Economics, Von Mises, and the Fight Against Interventionism.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Philippine Missile Deployment to Deter China. Captain Jim Fanell reports that the Philippines unveiled its first operational BrahMos anti-ship cruise missile battery in western Luzon to deter Chinese aggression. This supersonic missile system, part of the $7.2 billion Reorizon 3 modernization program, gives the Philippines "skin in the game" near disputed waters like Scarborough Shoal. The deployment signifies a strategy to turn the Philippines into a "porcupine," focusing defense on the West Philippine Sea. The systems are road-mobile, making them difficult to target. 1115-1130 AI, Cyber Attacks, and Nuclear Deterrence. Peter Huessy discusses the challenges to nuclear deterrence posed by AI and cyber intrusions. General Flynn highlighted that attacks on satellites, the backbone of deterrence, could prevent the US from confirming where a launch originated. Huessy emphasizes the need to improve deterrence, noting that the US likely requires presidential authorization for retaliation, unlike potential Russian "dead hand" systems. The biggest risk is misinformation delivered by cyber attacks, although the US maintains stringent protocols and would never launch based solely on a computer warning. 1130-1145 Sudan Civil War, Global Proxies, and Nigerian Violence. Caleb Weiss and Bill Roggio analyze the civil war in Sudan between the SAF and the RSF, noting both factions commit atrocities, including massacres after the capture of El Fasher. The conflict is fueled by opposing global coalitions: the UAE and Russia support the RSF, while Iran, Egypt, and Turkey back the SAF. The Islamic State has called for foreign jihadis to mobilize.

Weiss also addresses the complicated violence in Nigeria, differentiating jihadist attacks on Christians from communal farmer-herder conflict. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Corruption, Chinese Influence, and Protests in Serbia. Ivana Stradner discusses protests in Serbia demanding accountability one year after a canopy collapse killed 16 people, with investigations linking the accident to high-level corruption involving a Chinese company. Leader Vučić suppresses discontent by alleging the West is plotting a "color revolution." Although Vučić aligns his heart with Russia and China, he needs EU money for political survival, prompting him to offer weapons to the West and claim Serbia is on the EU path. 1215-1230 The Muslim Brotherhood and Its Global Network. Cliff May discusses the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), the progenitor of Hamas, founded in 1928 after the Ottoman Caliphate's abolition. The MB's goal is to establish a new Islamic empire. Qatar is highly supportive, hosting Hamas leaders, while the UAE and Saudi Arabia have banned the MB. Turkish President Erdoğan is considered MB-adjacent and sympathetic, supporting Hamas and potentially viewing himself as a future Caliph, despite Turkey being a NATO member. 1230-1245 Commercial Space Records and Political Impacts on NASA. Bob Zimmerman covers new records in commercial space: SpaceX achieved 147 launches this year, and one booster tied the Space Shuttle Columbia for 28 reuses. China also set a record with 70 launches but had a failure. Commercial space faced temporary impacts, such as an FAA launch curfew due to a government shutdown and air traffic controller shortages. Zimmerman speculates that Jared Isaacman's conservative-leaning public appearance at Turning Point USA might have convinced Trump to renominate him for NASA Administrator. 1245-100 AM Commercial Space Records and Political Impacts on NASA.

Also, the Philadelphia coin mint is striking its last pennies as the US prepares to no lonjger use this currency. We then shift over to give updates on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Pakistan-India conflict, the Cambodia-Thailand conflict, and we give an update on what's happening in Sudan (as well as discuss the possible UAE ties to the RSF).

Sudan's brutal two-year war has entered a new phase. The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has seized control of the entire Darfur region, ousting the Sudanese army from its last stronghold. The conflict has killed over 40,000 people and displaced more than 14 million, creating a humanitarian crisis. The capture of el-Fasher, North Darfur's capital, raises fears of Sudan splitting again, nearly 15 years after South Sudan's independence. The RSF, led by Gen. Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo, has roots in the Darfur genocide and has been accused of atrocities. Dagalo's forces have expanded their power and influence, leading to a power struggle with Sudan's army chief that plunged Sudan into war. On today's show, guest host Thandisizwe Chimurenga talks with Alaa Suliman from the Sudanese Association of Northern California on the ongoing crisis in Sudan. — Subscribe to this podcast: https://plinkhq.com/i/1637968343?to=page Get in touch: lawanddisorder@kpfa.org Follow us on socials @LawAndDis: https://twitter.com/LawAndDis; https://www.instagram.com/lawanddis/ The post Sudan News w/ Alaa Suliman from SANC appeared first on KPFA.

Few conflicts have caused as much horror and devastation to people's lives as Sudan's civil war. And yet, the country's ongoing death and destruction remains largely unnoticed, and often ignored, by the rest of the world.An estimated 150,000 people have been killed, and 14 million people displaced, since the country was plunged into civil war in April 2023 after a power struggle broke out between the country's army and a powerful paramilitary group called the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).Last month, the RSF captured the city of El Fasher, the last major urban centre in Darfur held by the army and its allies. Hundreds of thousands of civilians were left trapped in desperate famine-like conditions with no access to food, medicine or relief supplies.The city's civilians have also been subjected to mass killings, and ethnic and sexual violence, while pregnant women are giving birth on the streets after the last remaining maternity hospital was looted and destroyed.Why do so many in the world continue to the turn a blind eye to the world's largest humanitarian crisis?And is a ceasefire even possible in a region plagued by decades of instability, mass displacement and destruction?Today, on In The News, how Sudan became a killing zone.New York Times chief Africa correspondent Declan Walsh discusses the devastating effects of Sudan's civil war, the foreign powers funding the crisis and the measures needed to end this conflict.Presented by Sorcha Pollak.

De humanitaire ramp in Soedan wordt groter en groter. De burgeroorlog tussen het Soedanese leger en de Rapid Support Forces (RSF) kost aan steeds meer mensen het leven.

This week on Conflicted, we're unlocking for everyone an episode we first released a year ago for members of the Conflicted Community — an interview with Hussam Mahjoub, a Sudanese journalist, political activist, and founder of the independent TV channel Sudan Bukra, which has become a vital source of truth amid the chaos of war. When it was recorded, Sudan was already sliding into catastrophe. But in the months since, the country has fallen even further into one of the world's most devastating wars. The conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces has shattered the country: communications have collapsed, hospitals have shut, and millions are displaced or facing famine. In this conversation, Hussam helps us understand how Sudan got here. He traces the rise of the RSF from the Janjaweed militias that terrorised Darfur twenty years ago, and walks us through Sudan's modern history, from the long dictatorship of Omar al-Bashir, to the 2019 revolution, and the collapse of hopes for civilian rule. Hussam also offers an insider's view of the regional powers shaping Sudan's fate — Egypt, the Gulf states, and Russia's Wagner network — and how rivalries over gold, trade, and influence have turned Sudan's agony into a proxy struggle. Listening now, his analysis feels prophetic. The structural forces he identified then have since erupted into the full-scale war we see today.

When the Sudanese city of El Fasher fell to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in late October, the group gained control of the entire Darfur region and areas to the south-west. Their rivals, the Sudanese armed forces, control the capital Khartoum, as well as the northern, eastern and central areas of the country. The fear now is that Sudan could be divided, as the fighting rages on for a third year. Amid the violence, it is the civilians who suffer most. Mass atrocities have been reported that may amount to war crimes. Famine has been declared in parts of the country, while millions have been displaced by the conflict. This episode of Beyond the Headlines documents the humanitarian crisis in the aftermath of the RSF taking control of El Fasher, as civilians seek safety.

Survivors who fled El Fasher in Sudan have described witnessing atrocities as the city fell to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces last month. The RSF has denied killing nearly five hundred patients and staff at the Saudi Maternity Hospital after capturing the city from the army. We hear a special report from Barbara Plett Usher in Nairobi.Also in the programme: German songwriters score a victory over AI; and Iraq goes to the polls.(Picture: Remnants of a shell that targeted the refugee centre, in El Fasher, Sudan, October 7, 2025.

Lực lượng Hỗ trợ Nhanh bán quân sự của Sudan, RSF, đã đồng ý với một lệnh ngừng bắn nhân đạo do các nhà trung gian đề xuất, dấu hiệu đầu tiên cho thấy khả năng hòa bình sau gần ba năm xung đột tàn khốc. Nhóm này cho biết lệnh tạm dừng nhằm mục đích cho phép viện trợ đến được với dân thường, nhưng Quân đội Sudan vẫn chưa chấp nhận các điều khoản này, đồng thời yêu cầu các tay súng R-S-F trước tiên phải rút khỏi các khu vực đông dân cư.

This guy did it all. Moving the goal post, dodging the question, Red herrings, strawman, putting words in my mouth, self contradiction, arguing with himself about prior arguments he had with other people and not listening to anything i said, and of course running to Ai. It was amazing. This is what Ziobots do.As promised I a write up on SudanThe RSF (Rapid Support Forces) are led by Mohamed Hamadan Dagalo AKA Hemedti. The SAF Sudanese Armed Forces are led by Abdul Fattah al-Burhan also not a saint. Of the two he is the lessor evil one could say. RSF controls Western Sudan where most of the gold mines are located. They control more now with the fall of El Fasher. Hemedti and his brother have an account in Abudhabi National Bank in the UAE. The UAE's national Security Advisor Tahnoon bin Zayed acts as the middleman for Hemedti's gold for mercenaries trade. UAE imports 99.2% of Sudan's gold with 80% of that done illegally. Gold is moved through Tradive General Trading a UAE company. The registered owner is Abdul Rahim Dagalo, Hemedti's brother. TGT has purchased vehicles for the RSF mercenaries. Another front called GSK registered in Sudan is run by Hemedti's other brother Algoney Dagalo. It wasn't hard to look all this up. Takes maybe two days once you know the players. It is just that almost no one cares. The clowns at the forefront of social media attention currently don't do research. They wait for others to do it and then they swipe it, water it down and screw it up. Consider subbing for real news and analysis. This is a public episode.

Sie nennen sich M23 oder RSF. Es sind die Milizen im Kongo und im Sudan; sie führen Krieg im eigenen Land. Es geht um Macht und Rohstoffe - auf die Bevölkerung nehmen sie keine Rücksicht. Es gibt Vorwürfe schwerster Menschenrechtsverletzungen, die Lage im Sudan gilt als die aktuell größte humanitäre Krise der Welt. Zwar hat die RSF-Miliz dort einer Waffenruhe zugestimmt, doch die scheint brüchig. Was steckt hinter den grausamen Konflikten? In beiden Ländern sind Milizen oft aus lokalen Gemeinschaften entstanden, die sich selbst schützen wollten, aber dann zu Tätern wurden. Es sind Milizen, die nicht nur kämpfen, sondern wirtschaften: mit Gold, Menschen und Waffen. Es zeigt sich, wenn ein Staat zerfällt, übernehmen Milizen nicht nur die Waffen, sondern auch die Macht. Gewalt wird zur Wirtschaftsform und Straflosigkeit zur Regel. Gibt es Wege aus der Gewalt und was hilft den Menschen im Kongo und im Sudan? Wir sprechen mit der Politikwissenschaftlerin Niddal Salah-Eldin, mit Katrin Jullien, Regionalbüroleiterin der Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe in Nairobi, mit Dr. Astrid Irrgang, Geschäftsführerin des Zentrums für Internationale Friedenseinsätze und mit Nadège Kusanika, der im Kongo geborenen Autorin des Buches “Unter derselben Sonne“. Podcast-Tipp: 11KM: der tagesschau-Podcast Krieg im Sudan: Warum das Land in Gewalt versinkt Im Sudan wütet ein brutaler Bürgerkrieg. Im Kampf gegen die sudanesische Armee hat die paramilitärische Miliz “Rapid Support Forces”, kurz RSF, die Stadt Al-Faschir eingenommen. Es wird von Vergewaltigungen, Massenmorden, und brutalen Hinrichtungen berichtet. Nach UN-Angaben steht das ganze Land am Abgrund einer humanitären Katastrophe. Nina Amin aus dem ARD-Studio Kairo ordnet in dieser 11KM-Folge ein, was gerade im Sudan passiert. Sie erklärt, was den Konflikt so kompliziert macht und ob es eine Lösung in diesem laut UN „vergessenen Krieg“ geben kann. Redaktionsschluss für diese Folge war 6.

L'apertura di giornata, con le notizie e le voci dei protagonisti. Tutto in meno di 30 minuti.Sudan: Nella giornata di giovedì le Forze di Supporto Rapido sudanesi, in guerra con l'esercito regolare da oltre due anni, hanno annunciato di aver accettato una proposta di tregua umanitaria avanzata dai mediatori. Tuttavia, il governo sudanese, ha ribadito che continuerà la guerra, accettando solo una tregua che preveda il ritiro delle RSF dalle aree civili e la consegna delle armi da parte loro. Cerchiamo di fare il punto della situazione insieme a Federico Donelli, professore in Relazioni Internazionali all'Università di Trieste e analista Ispi.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 7 novembre 2025.Avec cette semaine :Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.Nicole Gnesotto, vice-présidente de l'Institut Jacques Delors.Michaela Wiegel, correspondante à Paris de la Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.Lionel Zinsou, ancien Premier ministre du Bénin et président de la fondation Terra Nova.COMMENT LE TERRORISME A TRANSFORMÉ LA SOCIÉTÉ FRANÇAISE DEPUIS DIX ANS ? Voilà bientôt dix ans qu'un commando terroriste a semé la terreur dans les rues de Paris, le 13 novembre 2015, assassinant 130 personnes et en blessant plusieurs centaines d'autres. Trois rescapés se sont depuis donné la mort, succombant à leurs blessures psychiques. Ces attentats ont profondément impacté la société française. Les médias jouent un rôle central lors de tels événements. Difficile d'informer avec précision dans un climat de peur et d'incertitude après un attentat. Le 9 janvier 2015 notamment, des chaînes d'information en continu ont divulgué la présence d'otages cachés dans la chambre froide de l'Hypercacher de Vincennes, mettant leur vie en danger. Les médias servent de caisse de résonance aux terroristes, qui, pour la plupart sont avides de spectacle. Face à la sidération après les attentats contre Charlie Hebdo et l'Hypercacher, la société française s'est immédiatement massivement mobilisée comme en témoigne la grande manifestation du 11 janvier 2015. La vie quotidienne a été transformée, bouleversée par les dispositifs de surveillance, de prévention et de lutte antiterroriste. Le terrorisme provoque également des effets perturbateurs comme la montée de sentiments xénophobes, antimusulmans ou antisémites et leurs réponses politiques. Il a induit des progrès considérables de la recherche, en particulier, depuis 2015, sur la question des traumatismes. Il impacte les procédures judiciaires. En France, depuis 2019, le nombre de procès criminels pour terrorisme a été multiplié par sept : la raison principale en est non seulement la création d'un parquet national antiterroriste, mais aussi la volonté de donner réparation à toutes les victimes et leur offrir la possibilité de s'exprimer dans le lieu symbolique d'une cour de justice.Procureur de la République de Paris en charge de la lutte contre le terrorisme entre 2011 et 2018, François Molins a vécu les événements les plus dramatiques qui se sont succédé pendant cette période, des attentats de Mohamed Merah en 2012, au 13 novembre 2015, en passant par le massacre de la rédaction de Charlie Hebdo. Insistant sur le fait qu'il a fallu trouver une juste mesure entre le durcissement de la réponse et le respect des libertés et droits fondamentaux, François Molins considère que « dans l'ensemble, la France y est parvenue » : L'état d'urgence décrété au lendemain du 13 Novembre a duré un peu moins de deux ans, jusqu'au 1er novembre 2017. Il a rassuré les gens et permis une amplification de la lutte - assignations à résidence, perquisitions, interdictions de séjour, fermeture de mosquées radicalisées -, toujours sous le contrôle de la justice administrative et du Parlement. Mais le risque de dérive est réel, met en garde François Mollins. En octobre 2025, cinq actes terroristes d'inspiration djihadiste ont été réalisés ou projetés, dans quatre pays européens, rappelle l'ancien procureur antiterroriste Jean-François Ricard. Ces faits, insiste-t-il, doivent nous alerter sur la persistance d'une menace qui prend des formes nouvelles.LA GUERRE AU SOUDAN Au Soudan, le 26 octobre la ville d'El-Facher, capitale de la province du Darfour du Nord est tombée aux mains des Forces de soutien rapide (FSR) qui assiégeaient la ville depuis plus de dix-huit mois. C'était le dernier bastion, au Darfour, des Forces armées soudanaises (FAS). La guerre au Soudan a commencé en avril 2023 lorsque les tensions autour du projet d'intégration des FSR à l'armée régulière ont éclaté en un conflit qui a fait des dizaines de milliers de morts et déplacé de 12 à 13 millions de personnes. Deux acteurs qui s'étaient partagé le pouvoir après la chute du dictateur Omar el-Béchir, renversé en 2019 s'affrontent : l'armée soudanaise, héritière de l'ancien régime, avec à sa tête le général Abdel Fattah al-Burhane ; et les FSR, une unité paramilitaire dissidente dirigée par le général Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, dit Hemetti. En début d'année, l'armée soudanaise et ses supplétifs miliciens ont reconquis la capitale, Khartoum, ainsi que la région agricole de la Jézira, le long du Nil. Depuis, ils contrôlent toute la moitié orientale du Soudan. A l'ouest, en revanche, les RSF dominent. Le noyau dur des hommes de Hemetti est composé d'anciens combattants arabes jenjawids employés, à l'époque d'El-Béchir, pour effectuer les sales besognes du régime et écraser les mouvements rebelles du Darfour. Ils sont eux-mêmes originaires de cette région, grande comme la France métropolitaine.Situé à la lisière de la partie subsaharienne de l'Afrique et du Moyen-Orient, le Soudan concentre une multitude de richesses et d'avantages géostratégiques suscitant toutes sortes de convoitises et d'ingérences : d'immenses terres arables, les eaux du Nil, des mines d'or, du pétrole, l'accès à la mer Rouge face à l'Arabie saoudite, des frontières avec huit pays africains. Soutenues par une partie des Émirats arabes unis, les FSR contrôlent les mines d'or du Darfour, les circuits de contrebande vers la Libye et la Centrafrique, et finance une armée privée plus riche que l'État soudanais, tandis que les FAS ont bénéficié de l'appui de l'Égypte, de l'Arabie saoudite, de l'Iran et de la Turquie, selon des observateurs. Tous nient toute implication.Les réactions internationales demeurent d'une discrétion gênée. Lundi, toutefois, le bureau du procureur de la Cour pénale internationale a averti que les atrocités commises par les FRS à El-Fasher « pourraient constituer des crimes de guerre et des crimes contre l'humanité ». Le Haut-Commissariat des Nations unies aux droits de l'homme mentionne des « massacres massifs de civils et de combattants désarmés ». La région, déjà extrêmement affaiblie depuis les massacres de Geneina en 2023, s'enfonce dans un nouveau cycle de violences entre communautés, où vengeance et désordre remplacent toute stratégie politique. Le pays s'est disloqué en zones d'influence : le Darfour aux mains des FSR, le Nord et l'Est sous commandement militaire, le Sud livré au chaos. L'État soudanais, déjà amputé du Soudan du Sud en 2011, se délite à nouveau.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

The Israeli government is facing what it calls a “public relations disaster” after a video surfaced showing soldiers torturing and sexually assaulting a Palestinian prisoner - a clear war crime under any legal system. Public outrage in Israel has focused less on the abuse itself and more on the leak. And the military's chief prosecutor, who admitted leaking the footage, has been arrested and branded a traitor. The saga is yet another example of Israeli society's unwillingness to confront what it has become. Contributors: Chris Doyle - Director, Council for Arab-British Understanding Mairav Zonszien - Senior Israel analyst, International Crisis Group Ori Goldberg - Academic and political commentator Yara Hawari - Co-director, Al-Shabaka On our radar: After an 18-month siege, the Sudanese city of el-Fasher has fallen to the RSF, triggering mass atrocities under a near-total media blackout. With journalists killed, captured, or missing, satellite imagery has become one of the few remaining windows into the violence. Ryan Kohls reports on the city's fall and the growing evidence of a potential genocide in Darfur. Kenya's most nicknamed president In Kenya, political satire often takes the form of sharp, witty nicknames - and President William Ruto has earned plenty. As his popularity wanes, young Kenyans online are using these nicknames to mock and challenge his leadership in ways that traditional media cannot. The Listening Post's Nic Muirhead reports on Ruto's long, growing and politically problematic list of nicknames.

Við rýnum í stríðsátökin í Súdan og hrottalegar aftökur sem þeim tengjast í Heimskviðum í dag. Það er stundum kallað gleymda stríðið því fjölmiðlar fjalla mun minna um það en önnur sem hafa geisað síðustu ár og áratugi. Það er þrátt fyrir að þar hafa á annað hundrað þúsund verið drepin, tugmilljónir þurft að reiða sig á neyðaraðstoð og eina mestu hungursneyð síðustu áratuga. Alþjóðaglæpadómstóllinn hefur til skoðunar hvort hrottalegar fjöldaaftökur RSF-sveitanna í borginni el-Fasher séu stríðsglæpir eða glæpir gegn mannkyni. Talið er að liðsmenn þeirra hafi drepið hátt í tvö þúsund manns í borginni síðustu vikur. Oddur Þórðarson ætlar að skoða síðustu vendingar, meðal annars vopnahléssamkomulag sem bandaríkjastjórn kynnti í vikunni. Svo ætlum við að kveðja Downton Abbey.

L'atelier des médias reçoit le journaliste et documentariste franco-afghan Mortaza Behboudi, qui vient de publier Fixers: Reporters without Bylines, un livre qui raconte son quotidien de fixeur, ces locaux qui accompagnent les journalistes internationaux, parfois dans des pays en guerre. Dans cette conversation de plus de trente minutes, Mortaza Behboudi aborde le rôle méconnu et périlleux des fixeurs. Il publie Fixers: Reporters without Bylines (PICT Books), un livre cosigné avec l'Ukrainienne Oksana Leuta qui expose cette réalité. Un fixeur est celui qui accompagne les journalistes étrangers sur des terrains complexes, servant de pont entre la population locale et la presse étrangère. Ils facilitent le travail (traduction, logistique, contacts) de reportage. Mortaza Behboudi résume avec ironie : « J'ai l'impression faire du babysitting des journalistes étrangers en Afghanistan. » Beaucoup de fixeurs afghans sont des journalistes locaux ayant perdu leur emploi, notamment depuis la chute de Kaboul, rappelle-t-il. Le livre, écrit en anglais, met en lumière le manque crucial de reconnaissance et de protection des fixeurs. Ce métier « hyper dangereux et essentiel » est trop souvent exercé sans contrat ni assurance et payé « au black », explique Mortaza Behboudi, qui dénonce la minimalisation du rôle des fixeurs, souvent réduit à celui de simple traducteur une fois la mission terminée. Le risque sécuritaire est omniprésent : les fixeurs sont souvent accusés d'espionnage, comme ce fut le cas de Mortaza en 2023, lorsqu'il a été arrêté par les talibans puis a passé 9 mois en prison. Aussi, Mortaza préfère parfois « réécrire les questions, adoucir les questions » des journalistes occidentaux afin de ne pas se mettre en danger. Mortaza Behboudi appelle les médias à la sensibilisation. Il insiste pour que les fixeurs obtiennent des contrats et soient cités, car « sans les fixeurs, il y aura aucun reportage » Mortaza Behboudi interviendra le samedi 15 novembre à l'événement Informer le monde de demain organisé pour les 40 ans de Reporters sans frontières (RSF), à la Gaîté lyrique.

The Sudanese government calls for international guarantees that RSF rebels will stick by a ceasefire they have signed up to, before it agrees to do the same. Fears grow of a return to conflict in neighbouring Ethiopia, where government forces and rebels from the northern Tigray region accuse each other of launching attacks. A 17-year-old student in Indonesia is suspected of carrying out a bomb attack at a school in Jakarta, which injured more than 50 people. The EU tightens visa rules for Russian citizens amid growing security fears, after nearly four years of war in Ukraine. The musical composition inspired by a world-leading space observatory.

The Trump administration has ordered a reduction in flights at 40 major airports across the country. Reuters reports on how the flight cuts could begin as soon as Friday unless Congress reaches a deal on the government shutdown. The paramilitary RSF has taken control of the city of El Fasher in Sudan. BBC analyst Alex de Waal explains why it marks a turning point in the country’s civil war. Food delivery has overtaken restaurant dining in a big way. The Atlantic’s Ellen Cushing joins to discuss how restaurants altered their businesses to cater to at-home diners. Plus, Supreme Court justices expressed doubts over Trump’s tariffs, a judge criticized the Justice Department’s “highly unusual” handling of the Comey case, and the scramble to secure the last remaining pennies. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Today's Headlines: Sudan's civil war took a dark turn after the paramilitary RSF captured El Fasher, giving them full control of Darfur's major cities. The group is accused of killing hundreds and filming their own war crimes as hundreds of thousands flee. Meanwhile, Trump's threatening to send the U.S. military “guns-a-blazing” into Nigeria to “protect cherished Christians” from Boko Haram, declaring the country a “state of particular concern.” Nigerian officials politely said thanks but no thanks—they're still, you know, a sovereign nation. In Venezuela, the U.S. carried out yet another boat strike (the 15th since September), as reports suggest Trump's team is prepping direct hits on Venezuelan military targets linked to drug trafficking. In local matters, Trump's demanding Senate Republicans ditch the filibuster to end the government shutdown while partying at Mar-a-Lago as SNAP benefits expire. A judge ordered the USDA to pay SNAP recipients “as soon as possible,” but leaked emails show the agency told grocery stores not to offer discounts to hungry families. Very on-brand. In other news, the White House fired the entire Commission of Fine Arts to make way for friendlier faces on upcoming construction projects, the FBI may have overhyped a supposed Michigan “terror plot” that might've just been teenage gamers, and newly released records show JP Morgan flagged over $1 billion in suspicious Epstein-related transactions—names like Dershowitz, Wexner, and Leon Black—while both the bank and Trump's first administration looked the other way.
