🎧 NEW EPISODE | Hold Your Fire! This week, Richard Atwood talks with Shewit Woldemichael and Alan Boswell about the Sudanese army’s recent advances in Khartoum and other parts of Sudan and what they mean for the war’s trajectory and prospects for diplomacy. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

Here, Shewit Woldemichael and I discuss with Richard Atwood the dramatic turn in #Sudan's war as the army gains ground, and how/if this war will someday end. Near the end, I also discuss why I'm extra worried about the broader Horn region these days, Trump and all. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

Sudan’s two-year civil war has triggered what is now the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, displacing tens of millions and pushing millions more into severe hunger. Peace talks remain the only way out of Sudan’s nightmare writes Shewit Woldemichael continent.substack.com/p/peace-talks-…

No end insight that Sudan’s war will wind down after army recaptured Khartoum. Rather, as war enters 3rd yr, the army & RSF still receive ample outside support to continue fight. Rather than let region unravel, diplomats could give de-escalation a chance. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

NEW STATEMENT | Two Years On, Sudan’s War is Spreading As Sudan’s war enters its third year, the conflict is escalating and likely to expand in scope unless diplomats make a concerted push for peace talks. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

Here, Crisis Group takes stock of the war in #Sudan after two years. In sum: The army has seized the upper hand. But the war keeps escalating and spreading, thanks to regional involvement. The consequences for Sudan and its neighbors are grave. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

1/2 Sudan is entering its 3rd yr of war. The UK government is convening a ministerial meeting with key countries on Tuesday, 15 April. The consequences of their choice will not be confined to Sudan if they don’t come up with a plan to end the fighting. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

Today Sudan enters its third year of war. As the world’s largest humanitarian crisis deepens, there are growing risks of the conflict escalating. The fragmentation of Sudan as a state and more destruction looms unless there is a push for peace talks. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

I was on ABC News The World yesterday to discuss 2 years of war in #Sudan, the fighting in Darfur, the London conference, why peace efforts have so little traction and how Sudan became the theatre for a wider regional war that keeps escalating. youtube.com/watch?v=uUyTiw…

Analyst’s📒If the RSF succeeds in taking El Fasher, it will control nearly all of Darfur, setting stage for what many fear could prove a de facto partition of Sudan. But there is little sign it would end the war says ⁦Shewit Woldemichael⁩ ⁦Crisis Group⁩ crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

We Crisis Group have been following developments in #Sudan as the Rapid Support Forces push to fully capture the city of El Fasher – with a heavy toll on civilians. @WmShewit gives an update of the battlefield and what this means for the war’s future. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

My short take on Tuesday's jarring London Conference on #Sudan, which descended into a spat among Arab powers on opposing sides of the war. The only hope many officials could offer is that the paralysis itself could prove galvanising. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…
