Crisis en Sudán: Un análisis alarmante de la devastación - The New York Times

Los Estados Unidos han declarado formalmente que en la nación africana del noreste se ha perpetrado genocidio, pero la calamidad que allí se vive se remonta a décadas atrás.

A civil war in Sudan that has killed 150,000 people and forced more than 11 million others from their homes, by some estimates, prompted the U.S. government on Tuesday to declare that a genocide had been perpetrated by one of the war’s main antagonists, the ethnic Arab militia known as the Rapid Support Forces.

The war, which has drawn in foreign countries and a host of armed groups, now threatens to spill over Sudan’s borders. After 21 months of fighting, thousands have been killed in a campaign of ethnic cleansing, countless women and girls have been subjected to sexual violence, and millions are hungry, in the world’s first officially declared famine since 2020.
