SUDAN NEWS ALERT: BBC - Sudan to send more troops to Darfur after deadly attacks

27/7/2020: BBC - Sudan to send more troops to Darfur after deadly attacks

 BBC’s report on the Sudanese government’s announcement that troops are being deployed to Darfur, provides some context on the spike in violence.

 The BBC attribute the rise in violence to a new conflict over land rights between people who are returning to Darfur in time for the July-November planting season after a government-sponsored deal, and those who took over the land after previous inhabitants were forced to flee after the Darfur War started in 2003.
