There’s a rhythm to wartime atrocity. First come the warnings,
ignored, dismissed. Then the whispers, the shaky videos, the
satellite images that no one can quite believe. And finally, the
horrific truth. That’s where we are today in el-Fasher, Sudan,
where the militia calling itself the Rapid Support Forces is
perpetrating a massacre that can literally be seen from space.
The crime has refocused attention both on Sudan's war, and the
RSF's regional backers. Who are they, and why are they
bankrolling such bloodshed? And why is such a vast and visible
atrocity drawing such a muted reaction from the international
community? Battle Lines is joined by Sudanese analyst Kholood
Khair from think tank Confluence Advisory and terrorism and
conflict specialist Michael Jones from Royal United Services
Institute.
