New Normal in the Khartoum Capital Region

 Aljazeera posted on 8 March 2024 a 20-minute podcast titled "The Take: Sudan's New Normal" with Hiba Morgan, Aljazeera's correspondent resident in Omdurman.

Hiba Morgan is one of the very few journalists to remain in the Khartoum capital region and to continue reporting on the situation in Sudan.  In this podcast, she describes her personal challenges and for many residents almost impossible conditions of living in an urban area frequently subject to artillery fire between the Sudan Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.
