In Sudan, @guypeterson.bsky.social and I attended a wedding that almost didn’t happen. A year ago, famine and war pushed this community to the brink. Thanks to their community, they made it happen. Our story for @csmonitor.bsky.social: www.csmonitor.com/World/Africa...

Sudan’s war is now the world’s biggest humanitarian crisis—14M displaced, famine, war crimes committed with impunity. @guypeterson.bsky.social and I reported from the Nuba Mountains, where a rebel group just allied with the genocidal RSF. Our first dispatch www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news-feature...

Aid blocked as “unimaginable suffering” grips Sudan’s Nuba Mountains

The situation is worsening as the rainy season sets in amid aid funding cuts and an escalation in fighting.

For those needing a fun news break, I present: The meteorite hunting herders of the Sahara Meteorites fall with the same frequency around the world, but are especially easy to spot in some places. Mauritania is one of them With @guypeterson.bsky.social Free link: wapo.st/4j9Md6i

On the hunt for meteorites in the far reaches of the Sahara

In the Mauritanian desert, nomadic herders look for unusual rocks with a dark surface, hoping to find rare meteorites and strike it big.

In Burkina Faso liepen fotograaf @guypeterson.bsky.social en ik een week lang rond op Fespaco, een toonaangevend filmfestival dat ondanks tien jaar terreur en twee staatsgrepen nog overeind staat.

If the peace deal collapses, fighting could quickly engulf the country. Worse still, it could merge with Sudan’s civil war across the border 👇 www.economist.com/middle-east-...

Another civil war looms in South Sudan

It could merge with the one in neighbouring Sudan, to catastrophic effect

In the Nuba mountains in Sudan a displacement crisis envelops the host community after over 700,000 people stream in from the surrounding Sudan fleeing fighting between the RAF and SAF seeking refuge in an area controlled by the SPLM-N rebel group.

A first post, I’ll do some older stories and add new work as it comes. Floods along the Senegal river affected over 55,000 people after heavy rain in the Senegal River Basin leaving many villages underwater or cut off displacing tens of thousands. In October 2024 . Shot for @afpphoto
