the human impact intensifies. heavy fighting has led tens of thousands to seek refuge in neighboring countries. across the eastern border and chat, the united nations has sent an emergency response teams offering humanitarian assistance. it estimates that $20000.00 refugees have made the crossing since the fighting began, many with tales of violence or on, on a tactile village in band. the houses are many people tried to escape, they killed the u. n's refugee agency has boasted supplies of relief items like sleeping bags, soap and utensils, whether it fears it won't be enough, especially with rainy season coming in from flint to act. now it will be too late. ah, wherein he says on his coming in few weeks. and there, if we don't provide any assistance, will appear pool. ah, verona will be blood and all the refugees here will be so ali. but through all the destruction and the horror stories,

glimmers of human kindness shines through this elderly resident of a town close to the egyptian border. spends her days baking bread for those fleeing the fighting a little. he'd be nice. the people have righty how for. welcome, our guest, hello, everyone is welcome. the door is opened, the schools, the mosque, the country will, will come any guest who comes to us sleepy. i really hope that god will stop the war hill and that both sides agree to solve the situation. had was to save our use to fix the situation for muslims, but but with suppose it cease, fire is not holding agencies fair. there's worse to come. i asked to den analyst eric reeves about the danger of the sudan conflict, plunging all of east africa into crisis. well, we begin with the fact that sudan as a country of 45000000 people and a 3rd of them are already in need of humanitarian aid. very little humanitarian aid. else, any sign of getting in there,

a tons of medical supplies. now add port sudan, but it's 850 kilometers from $430.00 and $2.00 cartoon. and while our focus has been on cartoon is for the rest of the country. we should be thinking about further to the west, especially and are for in the south in the core defense in the eastern states. these are places are going to have disastrous food shortages. there's already a cute malnutrition in dar for children, are starving to death in some locations, and with a stable sudan where the sudan that is coming apart, both because of the vast humanitarian crisis and the unceasing violence in carson and spreading sudan borders 7 countries and africa and all of those have complex relationships with sudan and some of them are not very friend.

libby as huffed our commander hooked our for example, as supporting the rapid support forces he is trying to bring leverage to bear so that it can get its renaissance dam approved by a studio. it's a very complicated region, and there are a lot of guns, lot of men, and a lot of and no democracy, and to stepping outside of the region for a 2nd. what role to the big international players have in stopping or even stoking the conflict? i'm thinking of the u. s. the gulf nations and russia and so on. it's a mixed bag and has been for 3 years since the constitutional declaration of august 2019 set in motion. the move toward civilian governance and sudan. russia is playing a terrible role. it's wagner,

forces are actively aiding the rapid sport forces. some call them the new john to wait for the united arab emirates is also assisting the rapid support forces. each decided with general auburn and the regular sudan armed forces. the international community, as represented by the european union, great britain, united states have really done a terrible job of confronting the reality, the political realities, realities on the ground. and this is embodied actually in the un secretary general, special representative to sudan poker parents who has just failed miserably. and his job has failed to see that he's dealing with 2 pathological liars. neither one who can be cross. and yet we keep seeing these agreements or positive

signs when there are no positive signs. people like myself that in predicting war for a very long time, you have to or me know, please continue. but my point was that you can have 2 generals, 2 armies in one country without conflict, becoming inevitable, especially when the man at the top are so ambitious. and just briefly, if i may, sir, what kind of mediation efforts are underway? and what chances of success do you think they have? so sudan has offered its good offices. united arab emirates, saudi arabia with very, very self interest, abuse of the conflict, are trying to get involved. sadly, i'm afraid this is applying to the finish. i doubt very much that the rapid sport forces can prevail. the sort of an armed forces may be able to prevail. but we need

to be focusing on how we're going to get humanitarian relief into a country that is now racked by a true civil war. ok, well thank you for that insight to sit an expert. eric rees, the russian defense ministry says its troops have captured more territory in back moot in eastern ukraine. the contested city has seen heavy fighting in recent weeks . keep admits it has lost much of back moved, but maintains it still has a vital supply line into the area. i wanted the ukrainian soldiers doing maintenance on the tank on the outskirts of been moved to the city is often referred to as the meat grinder, on account of the heavy losses. both sides have suffered, their ukraine's troops say that bit by bit, that being squeezed out to lot of of as far as i can see,
