Since fighting erupted between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in April 2023, at least 28 reporters have been killed, according to Sudan’s journalist union. Dozens more have been detained and tortured, while many have been displaced and cut off from electricity, water and internet…According to Reporters Without Borders, since the start of the war more than 400 journalists have fled the country…Yet some remain on the ground, working in secret with nothing to their name…In the North Darfur town of Tawila, where the UN says 180,000 survivors of nearby RSF attacks are sheltering, 30-year-old photojournalist Ibrahim works undercover to report on those trapped between famine and brutal violence…Last July, RSF fighters detained him in El-Fasher and accused him of being an army spy. He said they tortured him for five days and confiscated his equipment, documents and money. Since then, he has sent his family out of Darfur and relocated to Tawila, leaving his cameras behind. His mobile phone is all he has left…Still, Ibrahim continues, turning a coffee shop in Tawila — powered by a single public solar panel — into a makeshift newsroom. “Who else will tell the world what’s happening in Darfur if we leave?” he told AFP… “No one else will tell these stories. No one can imagine the atrocities happening here.” (AFP)
