The US, Israel, and Iran: How Global Tensions Fuel Sudan's War

As Sudan enters its third year of devastating warfare, the humanitarian crisis is reaching a critical breaking point. The relentless combat between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces has displaced millions and left the nation struggling against widespread famine.

The survival of this conflict is being sustained by external pressures. As the US-Israeli war on Iran and tensions in the Strait of Hormuz cause global food and fuel prices to surge, the path to peace becomes increasingly obscured. Determining what is required to halt the violence necessitates a close look at the international powers currently fueling the fight.

In the latest installment of The Take, political analyst Dallia Abdelmoniem joins host Malika Bilal to investigate the forces keeping the war alive.

This episode was produced by Tamara Khandaker, with work from Noor Wazwaz, Sarí el-Khalili, Spencer Cline, Chloe K. Li, and Tuleen Barakat. The production was edited by Alexandra Locke, who also serves as the series' executive producer. Sound design was handled by Alex Roldan, with video editing by Hisham Abu Salah and Mohannad al-Melhem.
