Sudan’s war has entered a darker phase where disease and weaponry converge. Reports from conflict zones point to a disturbing pattern: the symptoms of cholera outbreaks closely resemble the effects of chemical exposure. Civilians describe violent vomiting, acute diarrhea, respiratory distress, and rapid dehydration — all leading to death within hours.
Experts and local witnesses warn that what appears as a natural epidemic may in fact be a cover for chemical attacks deployed by the Sudanese Army against civilians.
Weaponizing a Familiar Disease
Since April 2023, evidence has grown that chemical agents are being used alongside conventional warfare. In Khartoum, Omdurman, and Gezira, what the government labels as “cholera outbreaks” coincide with reports of toxic gases and deliberate neglect.
The result is a dual crisis: cholera is real, but it is also being exploited as a smokescreen to hide the army’s use of banned substances. Instead of medical intervention, the response has been marked by negligence, cover-ups, and denial.
Rising Deaths Amid Health System Collapse
The Ministry of Health reported more than 2,700 cases and 172 deaths in one week, even as it admitted the healthcare system is collapsing. In a controversial move, the Minister ordered Doctors Without Borders to withdraw from isolation centers during the peak of the crisis.
Internal reports from Al-Nou Hospital and Omdurman Teaching Hospital reveal overwhelmed staff, mounting fatalities, and a lack of critical resources. While officials continue to claim the situation is “under control,” eyewitnesses describe bodies lying in the open and untreated patients dying within hours. The public cry is chillingly direct: “This is not cholera alone — these are chemical toxins killing us.”
A Hidden Form of Genocide
By allowing cholera to spread unchecked — and possibly amplifying its impact through chemical weapons — the Sudanese Army has turned an epidemic into an instrument of mass killing. This strategy kills quietly, not only with bombs or bullets, but through contaminated water, poisoned air, and deliberate neglect.
Internationally Prohibited, Locally Deployed
The evidence points to a campaign where chemical and biological warfare is combined with systemic health collapse, in violation of international law. Backed by Islamist power networks, the military is accused of embedding disease as a weapon of war.
This is not only a public health disaster but also a war crime of global consequence, one that deepens Sudan’s isolation and ensures accountability will one day follow.
The Guardline will continue to document these developments with accuracy and clarity. In an era of disinformation, truth remains the first line of defense. Guarding integrity in every headline, we will ensure Sudan’s hidden war crimes are brought to light.
