S2, Ep 3: Hiba Morgan, Al Jazeera Sudan correspondent
Manage episode 425883717 series 3332484
With western media outlets dubbing the conflict in Sudan a “forgotten war”, what role do journalists play in making sure the world doesn’t look away?
On the morning of 15 April 2023, Al Jazeera’s Sudan correspondent Hiba Morgan was up early, preparing to head out on a reporting trip northwest of the capital Khartoum.
There had been something in the air for months; a sense that a feud between two generals - one from the Sudanese army, and the other from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, or RSF - was about to come to a head. But nobody could have known the scale of the war that was about to unfold around them.
In this episode, Nicola talks to Hiba, the last remaining international correspondent based in Khartoum. She describes the atrocities she has witnessed, the complexities of verifying information when the situation is unclear and changing rapidly, and the determination to continue reporting from inside Sudan.
