Sudan's Killing Fields

 The Washington Post posted on 9 September 2024 an article titled "Videos from Sudan's Killing Fields Reveal Ethnic Hatred Behind Massacres" by Katharine Houreld, Hafiz Haroun, Lucy Provan, Klaas van Dijken, and Maud Jullien.  

The videos underscore the vitriol of Arab militiamen affiliated with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces toward their Black African victims and the toll of that bigotry.
