Inside the Secret Network Fueling Sudan's War

On-the-ground reporting and open-source research reveals new details about the weapons trafficking and training that's fueling civil war in Sudan. Lighthouse Reports, Sudan War Monitor, Evident, and a consortium of journalists worldwide collaborated for over a year to unveil the depth of meddling by other countries in this bloody conflict. Our investigation shows how a Middle East power — and American partner — is pulling the strings from the shadows.
