Film: Returning to Blue Nile and the Nuba Mountains

28 January 2013

In January 2013, Baroness Cox and Dr Mukesh Kapila travelled hundreds of kilometres through Sudan’s Nuba Mountains and Blue Nile. The two areas have been closed since armed conflict erupted between the Sudanese Government and opposition groups in June 2011. Over the past 18 months, hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced. Many remain in the two areas, where Government bombing has triggered desperate food shortages. International humanitarian relief access has been blocked. Is this on its way to becoming another Darfur-scale catastrophe?
