I can kill you right now – Sudan’s footballers on civil war
In the midst of the civil war in Sudan, some of the country’s footballers have spoken out about the violence and turmoil they are facing.
One player, who chose to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal, said “I can kill you right now if I wanted to. This war has turned us into monsters.”
Another player, speaking from a refugee camp, described the daily struggle for survival and the fear of being caught in the crossfire between warring factions.
Despite the chaos and danger, these footballers continue to play the sport they love, hoping to bring some joy and distraction to their war-torn country.
Many of them have lost friends and family members to the conflict, but they hold on to the hope that one day peace will return to Sudan.
Some have even used their platform as athletes to speak out against the violence and call for an end to the bloodshed.
The international community has taken notice of these brave footballers, with some calling for greater support and intervention to help bring peace to Sudan.
As the war rages on, these footballers persevere, knowing that their voices and actions could make a difference in the fight for a better future.
They refuse to be silenced by fear, knowing that their courage and resilience will inspire others to join them in the struggle for peace.
