I’m not sure if there’s a worse place on earth than Sudan. After wiping out most of the non-Muslim population, the various Muslim militias and military forces are battling to the death. And killing and raping everyone.
Armed forces in Sudan’s ongoing civil war are perpetrating systematic sexual violence against young children, with one-year-olds the youngest survivors of rape, according to a new report from UNICEF, the United Nations’ (UN) children’s agency.
The UNICEF report, released Tuesday, said that at least 221 cases of child rape had been recorded since the beginning of 2024, along with an additional 77 reported cases of sexual assault against children.
Four one-year-olds were among those who survived sexual assaults, while another 12 survivors were children under the age of 5, according to the report.
