That’s the same number of people who have been killed during the genocide in Sudan
The numbers are both chilling and numbing: 400,000 are dead, 2.5 million have been displaced from their homes and 3.5 million are hungry. Compounding what is known, it is assumed that thousands of rapes remain unreported: Victims are too scared or ashamed to seek help in a culture where rape brings social disgrace, ostracism and even expulsion from one’s own family.
The international community has failed to protect civilians or to provide the African Union with sufficient resources to do so. The Khartoum regime has been enabled to continue assisting the Janjaweed militia because no international body has stepped up to stop it.
