Our third episode focuses on Sudan's brutal civil war. The UN says that more than two and a half years of fighting has resulted in the world's largest humanitarian crisis with 25 million people facing acute starvation and one in three children suffering from malnutrition.

To help us understand what started this war and why a ceasefire has been so hard to achieve, we hear from Dallia Abdelmoniem. She is a former journalist turned baker turned political commentator, who, like millions of others, fled Sudan in April 2023.
