By the time I reached the hilltop over Kadugli in June, the war in Sudan had been raging for 1 year, 2 months and 7 days... Many NGOs no longer operate in the country. The United States Embassy fled to Ethiopia shortly after the fighting erupted.
Kadugli once served as a staging ground for a slow ethnic slaughter as the Sudanese regime tried to wipe out the rebels... But the dictatorship fell in 2019, and last year, the two generals who seized power in its wake turned against each other. A new civil war began.
Now, in this valley, the tables had turned: As the generals fought each other elsewhere, the rebels were on the offensive. Kadugli's food stores had dwindled since the rebels took the main supply route to the city.
