Back to international reporting from the edge of Sudan’s catastrophic war.
Staggered by the size of this disaster. Humanitarians say more than 21 million people, 41 percent of Sudan’s population need food…that in some areas, including Darfur, the desperation is so acute, children are already dying from hunger.
We document the stories of survivors who’ve fled for their lives and also compassion tonight, in an interview with @IAmAmnaNawaz on PBS @NewsHour in 6pm ET hour.
Evidence of glacial collapse before the flood:

I really enjoyed speaking to The World, on public radio, about humanity this week.

Might you have 4 minutes to read my essay in the NYT? I hope to learn your thoughts and engage in conversation, here on X at 12:45 pm eastern, about this reporting…gifted below to remove the paywall:
Is It Too Much to Ask to Care About Sudan? nytimes.com/2026/04/14/opini… via @NYTOpinion
You might not immediately guess what this 10-year-old has already experienced, that even before having to survive the war in Sudan, she lost both her parents, that only after humanitarians intervened, did she find a home with her grandmother.

As of today, famine in Gaza can no longer be denied. reuters.com/world/middle-eas…
“514,000 people - close to a quarter of Palestinians in Gaza - are experiencing famine, with the number due to rise to 641,000 by the end of September.”

“It is a famine openly promoted by some Israeli leaders as a weapon of war.” -@UnReliefChief.

"It is a famine. The Gaza Famine.
It is a famine that we could have prevented, if we had been allowed. Yet food stacks up at borders because of systematic obstruction by Israel.
Everyone owns this. The #GazaFamine is the world’s famine."
- @UNReliefChief
GOD, if you are listening, have mercy on the people now starving to death in Gaza. Soften the hardened hearts of all those responsible. Lead them to show humanity. Please.

Yulia Navalnaya, Alexei Navalny’s widow: “..after what happened to my family, in my personal life, I don’t afraid. And I ask all the people in Russia and all the people around the world not to be afraid of dictators. We give them the power when we show them we’re afraid of them.”
She’s declared she’ll run for President of Russia and says she wants Vladimir Putin in jail, watching, as democracy rises in her country. Photographed with Leopoldo Lopez, who is fighting for freedoms in Venezuela and now, all over the world. Full interview:
