- Sudan’s Wad Madani, once home to four million people, has become a ghost city after repeated violence and looting by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Most residents fled, but a few who stayed or returned described widespread suffering, including theft, destruction, and killings. Key infrastructure, like water facilities, has been systematically destroyed, leaving residents without necessities. Markets and streets are empty, and public services have collapsed. Efforts to rebuild are underway, but the city remains scarred by war, with life for those who stay nearly impossible due to a lack of food, water, and electricity.

Sudan choose warm relations with Israel, now they are paying a miserable price.
Choose? Pay? What are you talking about? The one who chose relations was the old government and the people went out and shouted revealing their hate to this this decision and you say that 150k died because they chose relations with Israel?
