Sudan’s War – Two Generals Fighting, a Shattered Nation

Nearly 1,000 days of war have dismantled Sudan’s future. What began as a fragile alliance after the 2021 coup has collapsed into a brutal power struggle between Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, head of the Sudanese Armed Forces, and Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemedti, who leads the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and now controls nearly half the country, including most of Darfur.
For more on the latest developments, we’re joined by Guy Josif, a Sudanese human rights activist and student at Georgetown University, who has been closely following events unfolding in his country of origin.

SUDAN WAR 1 000 DAYS OF AGONY

In the dust-choked camps of eastern Chad, time is measured not in months, but in the distance walked. For Aisha, a teacher from El Fasher, the 1,000-day mark represents exactly how long her children have been without a classroom. Since El Fasher’s fall in late 2025, Darfur has become a landscape of scars. While the SAF reclaims parts of Khartoum, the RSF has seized the Heglig oil fields and encircled Kordofan. As the generals trade drone strikes, civilians trade their last possessions for grain. To help us understand the cost of this stalemate, we are joined by: Amira al Senussi, a Sudanese activist; Osama Ahmed el-Mustafa Mohamed, an author and media strategist; Shakoor Nyaketo, a journalist and rights activist; and Guy Josif, a genocide survivor and scholar at Georgetown University.

DATA CENTERS VS COMMUNITIES THE BATTLE FOR NORTHERN VIRGINIA

By Paul Ndiho |Washington, D.C.

Northern Virginia is now the world’s data center capital. Hundreds of facilities stretch from Fairfax to Loudoun County, handling a large share of global internet traffic and fueling the rapid growth of AI.

Joining us are Elena Schlossberg, who formed a citizens’ association to push back against the unchecked growth of data centers in her county, and Greg Pirio, a Loudoun County resident whose front door now sits steps away from one of these massive facilities.
