Sudan's civil war

this article is about shutting down internet communication

Since conflict broke out in April 2023, both the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) have deployed internet shutdowns as a weapon to block information flows in areas controlled by the opposing faction. This is exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis that has seen at least 13,000 people killed and over nine million internally displaced — the largest internal displacement crisis in the world.

The ongoing internet blackout has posed serious challenges for emergency assistance and humanitarian aid.

wikipedia on the RSF and their many atrocities.

they also are working with Europe to slow the migration of refugees there, and of course are busy getting gold for their allies such as the Wagner group from Russia.
