'They ransacked my home and left my town in ruins' BBC Africa

Sudan is experiencing the world's worst humanitarian crisis, with millions displaced and many facing famine, as a result of the civil war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia that erupted in April last year.
The capital, Khartoum, was where the fighting started all those months ago and in recent weeks intense clashes have returned.
The BBC’s Mohanad Hashim returns to Sudan for the first time since the war began, to find what has been left of his childhood neighbourhood in Omdurman.

[@Abdul-pz1sn]

The UAE is giving weapons to the militia and is the cause of this war! They are the country killing the Sudanese people.

[@Africaladyy]

The evil weapon industry benefice alot..They make profits

[@Asgoga]

Wars basically are as old as human species themselves, only relatively recently there are substantially less wars compared to past few centuries or few millennia, but still too many people die due to current wars started by psychopath tyrants who want more power and money.

[@Tripleexel]

The world didn't tell 2 generals who don't want to allow the country to be civilian led to start fighting.

[@bubatuta8448]

It's called greed.Both generals are bought by outsiders.Egypt is the number one caos creator in north and east Africa.

[@monireid9515]

Horrible! I don't know why the don't make peace their primary objective?

[@madlou13]

Because it’s not profitable.

[@Abdul-pz1sn]

Well this war was started by the UAE and they are preventing it from stopping. They sided with the militia to take the country for our resources. Now the militia is killing the people and fighting with the army using Emirati weapons. That’s what this war is about! Most people think it’s simply a power struggle between the army and the militia. But if that’s true then why is every Sudanese citizen siding with the army?? This is an invasion! Spread the word!

[@husseintumusime7647]

But sudanese people started it by chasing away omal Bashir due to high price of the bread but now see the outcomes.

[@MohammedAmir-s8p]

No we wanted democracy and never expected this this was gods will and nNEVER BLAME MY PEOPLE FOR THIS because we didn't start this miss

[@peterkiburio8323]

Painful wars everywhere, inflicting pain to the innocent, those who cause it live abroad in luxury

[@janendegwa5462]

[@schillaci5050]

Just because of the love of gold by two men an entire country is destroyed

[@eyobgebreselassie511]

FYI, Egypt is the one who is fueling the war right at this time. They Egyptian regime never wants to see a peaceful Sudan.

[@maazhassabala4162]

You're not sudanese 😮 how can you know that!!! ??? , Emirates Support the RSF everybody knows it , so don't lie to us because we're not idiots, we know everything, and Allah knows who's started and why . Your name is an ethiopian name, so don't bring your issues with egypt to Sudan to make the situation worse,, solve your issues with Abbey ahmed and Amhra, then come and talk about Sudan okaay

[@eyobgebreselassie511]

@@maazhassabala4162 Tell me who bombed rsf together with other civilians recently? Isn't it Egypt? I don't have to be Sudanese to speak the obvious fact. Sudan is being torn apart because of foreign powers interest and one of them is Egypt. Egypt provided the Sudanese army with eight warplanes and 250 kg bombs.

[@maazhassabala4162]

​@eyobgebreselassie511, you tell me who come and destroyed the capital city and take over the houses from the civilian!!!!!!??? . You know that more than 10 millions people have lived there homes By force of arms of the RSF to seek asylum in Egypt, Eritrean and even ethiopia ... Come on bro

[@igweogba6774]

Everyone has something bad to say about tyhe RSF

[@chicago9458]

[@hkayir916]

Egypt is evil 😈.. now they are trying to start a war between somaliland.. and somalia they are shipping weapons to a failed state to attack a peaceful country Republic of somaliland..

[@janendegwa5462]

they say they are united as one u der one religion how come they cant solve their problems many christian nations have gone to war and it ended but they cant end their wars they should keep christians out of it

[@maazhassabala4162]

Why do we have to blame Egypt !!!??? We know everything, so don't lie to us . Emirates Support the RSF, which is why the situation is getting worse.

[@Sumadeena]

Religion has nothing to do with it, it is gready power Hungary men just like Russia Ukraine war and zionism

[@wm9669]

I disagree Is Ukrainian and Russian islam problem?

[@maazhassabala4162]

Islam ☪️ is the most peaceful religion in the world 🌎. As a sudanese citizen, we know Emirates is our problem because they support the RFS with guns and weapons for almost 10 years since they started the war in Yemen and lybia "haftr " If you have issues with Islam, try to educate yourself and learn more about Islam

Ya Allah, O Most Merciful help the people in Africa Allah is sufficient Jabir reported: There came a slave and pledged allegiance to Allah's Apostle on migration; he (the Holy Prophet) did not know that he was a slave. Then there came his master and demanded him back, whereupon Allah's Apostle said: Sell him to me. And he bought him for two black slaves, and he did not afterwards take allegiance from anyone until he had asked him whether he was a slave (or a free man) >
