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.
