Inside the Forgotten War in Darfur, Where the Killing Never Stopped

- DARFUR, Sudan - The jagged peaks of the Jebel Marra mountains rise suddenly out of an endless stretch of desert in western Sudan’s Darfur region. Rebel soldiers, many of whom came here to fight against the government nearly 20 years ago, man their posts.
Today civilians here live in relative safety after decades of war, but these mountaintop villages are completely cut off from the rest of Sudanese society. To many, trauma from decades of bombs dropped on them by their own government is compounded by their total isolation.
A team from VICE News are the first outside journalists to access the last rebel stronghold in Jebel Marra in five years. What we found is an area still completely cut off from Sudan and still functionally at war. Nearly a year after a historic revolution toppled President Omar al-Bashir, some in Jebel Marra haven’t even heard he is no longer in power.

This is a Vice I remember, thank you!
I wish I was jn voice team I would travel around the world and sevebn seas sweet dreams are made of this
wow good content again nice
My mom used to live in Darfur and her village was attacked and she had to carry my brother and sister all the way to chad 🇹🇩 but they escaped safely that’s why I am here today
❤️❤️❤️
I'm glad you and your family are safe now. The worlds needs more good people.
Wow. Truly resilient people. I’m happy for you all. ❤️ do you know of any updates? Or ways for people to help internationally? I looked up online and articles made it seem like it’s all better now (and I’m hesitant to believe that).
@@gabg5615 it’s not rlly all better they still have problems in places near there :>

not being born in places going through this really is winning the lottery
Or maybe cruel mindless reckless brainless parents to bring a child into starvation war and prostitution ???
@@arashsartipi6426 it's called life, what do you think they should do never reproduce and go extinct. This place and other places like it is the true test of life. Thank god people don't share your mentality or humans would extinct.

Exactly what I was thinking...for these men their life is decided even before they're born

Sometimes we don't realize how good we really have it....
We don’t have it good enough
Consider this: If everyone on earth lived liked these people then the world wouldn't be a polluted dying rock. If the whole world lived like North-Americans then we would need 5 planets to satisfy everyone's needs. Privilege and excess comes at a cost so enjoy your "good" life while you consume the planets resources.
It’s just a scale at each part

Yea, peace and stability are necessary. You can't build a factory, a road, infrastructure projects, etc. if you're busy fighting a war, it takes money and resources and on top of that it's dangerous because it could be attacked or a road for example could be taken over by rebels.
Sure
@The Count for what?
Don't let these wahabi salafiya islamists in your country.
@@Larrypint these aren't islamists tho, they're just money hungry mercenaries and warmongers.

Stop Propaganda
Powerful statement
@@-privat-9061 that has to start with america first.
@@Dockhead America is full of propaganda no doubt.
As a Sudanese, I would like to thank you very much for this documentary. It really tells the story from the perspective of the people of Darfur who have suffered for decades. Most of our TV channels did not and will not narrate such a documentary, because it supports the former Omar al-Bashir party (the National Conference), or as we call them "Kizan". I am really grateful for this. It means a lot.
How is it portrayed there by the government?
@@discospaghetti6744 Our current government does not care much about what is happening in Darfur. And when they talk about it, they just comment on the humanitarian situation there without making any plans to deal with it.
Sometimes I feel jealous of European countries.
ما كل الناس عندهم يوتيوب للاسف عشان يحضروا وثائقيات زي دي
@Grendizer
Sounds like most of the government needs to be assassinated
I remember "Save Darfur" campaigns at my school back in 2006-7. 13 years later, still no changes 😔
Yeap, the brainwashing.....it continues. You probably can't name 20 states in the U.S. if shown a map but you know about Dafur. Is all about politics.
Me also, yet I was young and ignorant and ignored it 😣😣
H Max lol people can name everything about America but ask them to name 10 African countries and they can’t. Ask some African Americans lol UA-cam full of it
Jimmy Beats why ask “African Americans”? Most of them haven’t ever been to Africa or even know which part they’re potentially from? The arrogance to even imply Black Americans should be able to name some African countries when most have had their entire family origins stripped from them decades ago.
Well the govt that carried out the genocide was brought down... And their crimes have become aware to the Sudanese people. Apparently Sudanese citizens themselves didn't know what was happening in Darfur but now we know. And we are doing our best to help
Old VICE is coming back
I guess this will remain a meme for all eternity when VICE uploads something that isn't politically polarizing, we will have people say "Da real vice iz back" and whenever they post bad news on Trump it's back to "wow so biased".
eres i thinks people are more mad about vice making almost every video about lgbtq bs rather than trump most people that watch vice are left anyways
Lol I’ve been watching vice for 6-7 years and every year the comments are the same. They upload something people don’t like and it’s “vice sucks” they upload a war documentary and it’s “old vice is back”
Joseph K nah the last couple of years they have been pushing the left and lqbt heavily the only reason vice has a huge platform is because of their powerful documentaries on war
Balyeet Bhagaloe they have literally always been left wing
I feel so sad for people who have to live like that everyday it shouldn't be that way
And in America we have women fighting for “equality” even though they live in the most prosperous nation in the world
Yet it is Shad.. yet it is.
Stealtho the US has all the resources EXCEPT one thing... a brain
@@stealtho merica is a third world country
shadyburn ike THATS the UN for you
This was painful to see. As a Sudanese living in the capital I had no knowledge of this happening and I feel ashamed that I was mislead by the government's propaganda at the time about these people.
I hope they find justice and prosperity in the country that we as the people reclaimed as one 🌹🌹🌹.
We must restore our country to it's former glory
you dont even know things that happened in your own country ? that's so f-ked up man come on,its your own country ???
Luqman K You’d be surprised how ignorant people are and don’t realize how corrupt the outside world is. I live in the US, and mostly everyone is very uneducated about history, it’s atrocities, and their own government!
Even in my college, I’ve talked to immigrants/transfer students who don’t know much about their own country or region.
It’s very sad to see I’m more educated than the natives who live in their own country. Many individuals only become this ignorant because they’d rather use escapism than enlighten themselves about the world.
I C Yea, it’s also all the propaganda that produces a “numbing” mind towards reality.
That’s why I’ve self-educated myself in history, theology, geography, anthropology, philosophy, etc. Someday soon, I would love to share my knowledge and talk of the many misconceptions about history, that keeps doing damage to our society.
@@luqmanHG I know you might find that surprising, but unfortunately it is true. I only came to realise the truth of the situation when I went to the UK and met one of the refugees there. What he told me was just mind blowing. I would have never thought the government I was seeing would be capable of doing such horrible things to innocent people. I could feel his anger at the injustice his people suffered and that they were betrayed by the rest of the people.
In Sudan I am perceived as an "Arab" as I am relatively light skinned, so when I first met him he was somewhat reserved, however as time went on we became the best of friends and to this day we still are.
Man...by far _the_ most rational and reasonable list of demands I've ever heard from a rebel leader...
I was thinking the same thing
Makes sense since they’re pretty much just trying to survive.
Honestly thank God we have Vice to inform us on the things "official" news womt cover
The government of these countries have been informed as to what takes place within their borders. Everyone watching will do nothing. Money money money views views views
But what are you planning to do with this information exactly? ( This isn't a malicious comments in just curious cuz you have thank god for this information) how will you use use it to make a construction difference?
this is just a myth. Things like this do get covered.
Don't thank God, thank Vice News instead. God has nothing do with it, he doesn't deserve credit.
"God" is actually the main reason they fight about. These are wahabi,salafiya islamists.
I'm Sudanese and live in the capital. For work, we usually travel around Sudan to document agricultural success and what not for non-profit organisations. The fact that they were able to EVEN ACCESS JABAL MARRA IS HUGE FUCKING DEAL!! Whenever we attempted to come close to Marra, they'd send us back around. Mad props to VICE for pulling this off.
ah man thats awful.
hope you all the best man.
stay strong, bad days are temporary :)
Vice is improving cause they starting to look at the comment sections. I hope they keep on showing major global issues.
No. They have two units. This one do awesome international stuff no one does and does it brilliantly. Other virtue signals leftist propaganda and sjw madness.
That woman with the rifle fighting for her life and her childrens is the true representation of a powerful woman.
Powerful? Eh no. Strong willed and brave? Absolutely.
Better than American women who are still confused about their gender

"The RSF has not committed genocide since it was established" hmmmmm ok I see your point but wtf xD
Yea lol minor detail that it’s only been around for like 6 months
This would be the same as the CIA coming forward and saying they have not executed any, "overthrowing of governments." 🤣😂
Lol I hope that's just a lost in translation moment
The RSF are basically recycled soldiers from the Bashir period
Genocide in here is killing some group of people.
Yeah RSF don't specifically targeting their target to some group of people.
But they kill any people that want to touch their territory.
"The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything"
― Albert Einstein.
Thats deep
Ok what are we doing and what are you doing. Nice quote
True evil still wants to maintain order unless they want anything and everything dead
And if that's so its underlings will kill the leader
And will maybe create a more maintainable order or will follow the footsteps and continue the cycle
what are u doing about it?
you look like a politician .. lol
nice talking ...
True. No matter what, there will be bad people pretty much everywhere and in everything doing the harm, and its up to you how you go about it. Of course doing nothing helps it thrive, standing up could result in destroying it.
Just the scenes bring me back war memories I am from Darfur I wish peace and development for my country ✌🏾
Sorry for what happened back home.
I'm Sudanese living in Khartoum, I find it fascinating how vice come so close with its reporting to what it's real on the play ground, I never thought that someone would come that close to area of Jebel Marra..
it's the only platform with a very articulate information about reporting the real situation.. Keep up the good job..
That are real journalists,what they show on tv and media sites is half true or all false. All the world is under rule or Usa when is about sharing information to the world about some conflicts. Example ,i know a guy from Uganda and he is told me that dictator at that time is been more good things to the country the bed,but they portrait him only as evil. I guess similar is with all regimes since now ,not only in africa-people may live poor ,but is not like under occupation from usa dictature. Now they are more poor and has drugs and crimes,more corruption then ever.
@@Noname-ni8qmlol don't blame America on this. Everybody knows Sudanese Arabs are massive racists towards non Arab sudanese. Why do you think South Sudan split up after a half century of fighting the central government.
Praying for peace in Sudan. Thank you for sharing these stories. Please keep doing so!
Damn bro

I travelled through Sudan as a Canadian in 2020 and had a great experience, especially with culture. The only warnings at the time were don’t go near the border with South Sudan and stay away from Darfur. Outside of that, Sudan was safe enough to walk around alone at night, something you can’t say about a lot of places. This is a great documentary, thank you for the insight
Can't say that now
I am inneed of travelling to Canada but I have no connection am in Kenya and hope someday I will b able to travel
So I live in sudan Capital Al Khartoum , and this is the first time I see Gabal Maraa and the rebels
Amazing journlism from you
Thank you for showing us the Hidden part of our country ❤️
Same here 😅.
baraka adil , You call him a rebel, why?
Its a shame u dont know ur country
@Inquire about it Lol. Your ancestors literally slaughtered a whole ethnic group and slaved another just to live somewhere else.
@@mrcasful
You wouldn't know too if you were in his position. Internet is very expensive there and most find it hard to even make enough money to buy food and pay their rent, media there like most countries is controlled by the government so ofcours they won't show non of this and will make the government be the good guys.
My heart goes out to the civilians of Darfur who have suffered the unspeakable atrocities of genocide.
These are the stories that need to be told; I missed this vice and im glad to see it’s back
The last dude Muhammed broke my heart when he said that he would die the same way his uncles and brothers did in order to bring justice💔💔

Please do more stories and bring awareness to this ongoing situation that still in existence. Thank you for always bringing the truth VICE✊🏾
This is why I supported Vice News from the start. Keep doing stories like these and ill come back to you. Great investigative journalism with a filmic quality, telling longer form, lesser known stories. Yes!
This is the Vice I had signed up for back in 2010. Keep these stories up
We live in a period where we can “forget” wars that literally happened a few years ago.
@ジョージ様 Disagree, people are just more accustomed to war nowadays because for the west it's a profession, there's no draft so when the US fights in Afghanistan there's almost zero impact on the average american civilian
The one referred in this report is happening as I am writing this comment ua-cam.com/video/RNFYTUbFTRs/v-deo.html

Thank you for this insight. It surely raised my interest in the conflict, and it is my belief that we have to raise consciousness globally about what happens in Darfur.
As Professor Hans Rosling said: we, as human beings, are very bad at recognizing slow trends and slow developing events. Which is why long-lasting conflicts like this tend to be missed and left out.
I was born in Nyala, Darfur and this is heartbreaking. After settling in Australia escaping war, i returned in 2015 to find the desolate remains my people and their land. Sudan's 2019 revolution brought some hope of change however I am doubtful it will extend to the people of Darfur - one of the true natives of the lands. We are disappearing as we speak and so is my identity.....

Epitome of journalism. I can‘t say the same about the billions of masquerading journalists.

While this is an excellent piece of journalism, you shouldn't dis on journalism as a whole with comments like this. The majority actually have good intention. Many are doing great with passion and integrity. Only a few are manipulating others for their own profits. It's easy actually. Just follow the money to see the truth.
