Sudan’s war has left behind a staggering toll: 150,000 killed and more than 12 million displaced. Beneath these numbers lies what rights groups describe as an engineered system of destruction, designed and overseen by Islamist factions linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, locally known as the Kizan.


From Political Influence to Chemical Warfare

For nearly three decades, Sudan lived under the rule of the National Congress Party, marked by corruption and systemic abuse. Although removed during the December Revolution, the Brotherhood’s influence never disappeared.

Today, evidence points to Ali Karti, the Islamic Movement’s secretary-general and internationally wanted figure, as a central force behind General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the army’s decisions. Reports, including a statement by the civil coalition Samoud, accuse the Sudanese Armed Forces of deploying chemical weapons against civilians, signaling what international observers call potential acts of genocide.


Khartoum in Ruins

Eyewitnesses describe Khartoum as a dead city:

  • 60% of its infrastructure destroyed.
  • Homes, bridges, and hospitals reduced to rubble.
  • Armed groups patrolling empty markets and abandoned streets.
  • Widespread hunger, fear, and untreated disease.

Experts estimate the cost of reconstruction at over $300 billion, underscoring the deliberate scale of devastation.


International Sanctions and Growing Isolation

The United States has imposed sanctions targeting Islamist leaders and war financiers, while the World Bank has halted its final instruments of support. Yet these steps remain insufficient against the scale of Sudan’s humanitarian catastrophe. Analysts warn that only a coordinated international coalition can halt the spiral of destruction and bring accountability to those orchestrating it.


A War on Sudan’s Future

Sudan’s tragedy is not accidental. It reflects a calculated strategy to preserve power at any cost — even if it means mass killings, displacement, and chemical warfare. Each passing day without action adds to the toll and erodes the possibility of recovery.
