“There was beating, sexual assault, death. Then the torture & training began. My role was to spy for them. Because they had my children, I had no choice.” Civilians trapped in #Sudan’s bloody war are facing unimaginable trauma. I met them on the front lines to hear their stories.

Domestic violence has no place in society and for top female athletes, it is becoming increasingly fatal especially with jealous partners. Rebecca Cheptegei (Uganda 🇺🇬) now joins two Kenyans Agnes Tirop (2021) and Damaris Mutua (2022) who were killed by partners in Iten, Kenya.

This incredible Ugandan athlete was murdered by her boyfriend shortly after competing in the Olympics. He poured petrol over her and set her on fire. She fought for several days and died in agony. I have no words. I’m so sorry we failed you, Rebecca.

One of the books that inspired me to be a war correspondent. Still one of the finest testaments to the importance of listening to voices of human beings trapped in conflict. Do read it.

Excellent TV report from PBS News on the war in #Sudan with amazing interviews with captured RSF fighters and investigation into ongoing UAE support. A very good explainer on this complex crisis. pbs.org/newshour/show/…
