Sudanese general warns Kenya against sending peacekeepers

By Edwin F -

Sudanese general has warned Kenya against sending peacekeepers to Sudan. The general, Yassir al-Atta, made the warning in a video released on Monday, July 24, 2023.

In the video, al-Atta said that any Kenyan troops who come to Sudan would be "killed". He also accused Kenya of being "bought off" by an unnamed third country.

Kenya's foreign affairs principal secretary, Korir Sing'Oei, has dismissed al-Atta's warning, saying that it is "unworthy of our comment". He has also said that Kenya is neutral in the conflict in Sudan.

The United Nations has been calling for an end to the fighting in Sudan, and has said that it is ready to send peacekeepers to the country if both sides agree. However, the Sudanese government has so far refused to allow UN peacekeepers into the country.

In a world filled with breaking news and constant global updates, some stories tragically slip through the cracks. According to the Norwegian Refugee Council's (NRC) 2025 report, the ongoing conflict in Southern Cameroon, often referred to as the Anglophone Crisis, has been identified as one of the most neglected displacement crises in the world. This isn’t just a statistic—it’s a stark reminder of the devastating human suffering that continues without the attention, resources, or action it so desperately needs. For the first time in seven years, Cameroon has taken the top spot on the NRC’s list of forgotten crises. This designation highlights not only the severity of the conflict but also the glaring lack of international awareness and response. While wars and crises in other parts of the world dominate media headlines and humanitarian efforts, the plight of Southern Cameroon has largely been left in silence. Why Is This Crisis Happening? At the heart of the Anglophone Crisis is...
