'But the reality is messy, dark, and frightening.' Interesting take on why the SAF are not a better or more legitimate force than the RSF.

UAE calls on RSF and SAF to cease hostilities, and expresses 'deep concern' over risk to El Fasher.

Important. But will only be meaningful if UAE also halts its illegal arms transfers to the RSF.

When the RSF siege of Al-Geneina started, alarm bells were sounded to no avail and the final death toll of the RSF-led massacre was estimated at 10,000 - 15,000.

This was a fascinating evening, with a thought-provoking talk by Philippe Sands who questioned the impact of genocide law and the issue of group vs individual rights. (And had something good to say about Lizz Truss...)

Looking forward to speaking Achill Heinrich Böll in the beautiful west of Ireland on Saturday May 4th. In Heinrich Boll’s words, I will be talking about writing, especially journalism, as ‘the bulwark of freedom’.

Tonight Channel 4 News I'm reporting on the arrest for corruption of Timur Ivanov, one of Russia's 12 Deputy Defence Ministers. Allegations of corruption, and photos of his expensively dressed wife, have circulated for years. So why now?
