"We knew what would happen-rape, killing, disappearing. We had seen it before. This time, we knew we had no one to count on but each other."
"They attacked the protesters just before Eid,"
"People were killed. Thrown in the Nile. Raped in hospitals. The internet was cut for months. You couldn't even check if your family was alive."
"We Slept on the Floor Because We Were Being Shot At"
Yasir, a Sudanese refugee and global health practitioner, experienced Sudan's war from multiple vantage points: sheltering from bullets, fleeing abroad, returning to rebuild, and witnessing renewed collapse. He crouched on his family's home floor during shootings, endured the June 3, 2019 massacre's aftermath, and faced cut communications that made checking on relatives impossible. He has provided aid in fractured communities and worked on U.S.-funded health programs later gutted by politics. His experience illustrates how civilians survive violent collapse and how the aid system can act as both a lifeline and an illusion.
