Sudan's brutal civil war
Sudan is currently experiencing one of the world's worst humanitarian emergencies.
We speak to our correspondent Nawal Al-Maghafi who has been on a rare trip to Sudan’s capital Khartoum, one of the key battlegrounds between the Sudanese Army and the paramilitary group the RSF, the Rapid Support Forces. She went to see the impact this war has had on the most vulnerable - children.
