In late April, fighters from the Rapid Support Forces recover in the Mother of Mercy Hospital in Sudan's Nuba Mountains following injuries sustained in conflict. Their presence highlights a new alliance formed between the SPLM-N and RSF amid ongoing civil war. The hospital serves as a temporary refuge for those affected by the war that has plagued Sudan since April 2023. Community solidarity is demonstrated through collective efforts to fund a wedding dowry amidst famine-related hardships, illustrating resilience despite dire circumstances.
"The reason these fighters can rest and recover here is that the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-North has allowed them in, in a development that embodies the rapidly shifting nature of Sudan's alliances."
"Women were coming together to raise funds for the dowry, enabling the wedding celebration to go ahead despite the difficulties posed by the famine stretching people's resources."
