Sudanese Struggle to Survive Endless Bombings Aimed to Quell RebelsLEWERE, Sudan — Fatima Ramadan, mother of six, froze, her eyes shooting up to the sky.“Antonov!” she yelled.Little girls threw down the pebbles they were playing with. Toddlers, sensing danger, started to wail. About two dozen people grabbed the young and dashed up the mountainside into a cave. It was hot and dark inside, and the children’s eyes were wide with fear.“I don’t like this place,” said Kaka, a 10-year-old girl.Nobody does. And yet thousands of people live like this.By JEFFREY GETTLEMANPublished: July 3, 2011

The new Darfur?July 3, 2011

LEWERE, Sudan — Children with shrapnel wounds lie on metal hospital cots. Thousands of others have been huddling in caves and stony riverbeds, fleeing the fighter jets and bombers prowling the skies. Villages are empty, fields unplowed. At the faintest buzz of a plane, people scatter into the bush, in a panic.June 30, 2011

Only one disturbance by MiG. Hit dry riwer bed near Kauda. Farmers immideately desapered from fileds up in the mountains among greath granite blocks. Vilages empthy, markets empthy, no vagetables, no fruit - only a couplo of lemons.Tomo Kriznar, June 29.2011

Killings of children and other civilians in Kurchi, Nuba mountainsFor the time: Tomo Križnar, June 27. 2011

Children have enough. Lots of crying, lots of questions. Non stop ready for run. MiGs are not Antonovs from the last war in Nuba Mountains (1985 - 2001), they cross the sky over the valley in a couple of seconds. Yesterday we ran five times - never jumped in safety before they are on the other side of the sky. Tomo KrižnarIn the womb of mother Earth with her children, on 25. june 2011

Zemljevid Sudana z vrisanimi tremi gorskimi področji, kjer živijo staroselci (Jebel Marra, Nubske gore in gorovje Ingassana). Ti so po političnih spremembah še toliko bolj ogroženi.

Antonov in the sky at about 16.00. We ran as always to the first dry river bed. As every day I filmed mothers who forgot to take their children, men looking intensly in the sky ... Machine went and then returned. We hear typical sssshhhhhhh ... and then booommm, booommm ....Tomo Križnar, Kauda, Wednesday, June 22 2011

There is a strong feeling, that Nuba are facing same siege as described so sistematically in Alex de Waal book »Facing genocid«. Goods are not coming in the mountains from the North and there is no supply from the South. Air supply after last bombardments is too dangerous to most of NGOs helping Nuba before. They evacuated their staff. Two weeks ago war started. South betreyed Nuba, everybody is saing that, so Nuba can not excpect to be supplied from South even so little as they were in the last war.Tomo Križnar, 18. junij 2011

Conflict in 'contested areas' on the new border is jeopardising peace on the eve of South Sudan's independence With South Sudan on the verge of independence, a new wave of fighting and displacement is spreading across the disputed border areas. Peter Moszynski, Sunday 12 June 2011 More:

Rayana iz te ameriške humanitarne organizacije, za katero sem se januarja prepričal, da kljub evangelijskemu delu (beri pokristjanjevanju ... beri pripravljanju afriških janičarjev na križarsko vojno proti arabskim muslimanom ...), dejansko od vseh še najbolj skrbi za staroselce v Nubskih gorah, ne morem priklicati na telefon.Tomo Križnar, 7. junij 2011, Kampala Več:

June 8, 2011 (KHARTOUM) – Fighting in Sudan’s flashpoint state of South Kordofan has rumbled on for the third consecutive day, forcing the UN to suspend operations and sparking both domestic and international concerns. Meanwhile, tension has been exacerbated after a local official of north Sudan’s ruling National Congress Party (NCP) was assassinated on Monday amid reports that hundreds of people have fled fighting in the state’s town of Kadugli.

June 7, 2011 (KHARTOUM) – Around 70,000 civilians have been forced to flee their villages in Darfur since December 2010 as result of the upsurge of violence in the troubled region of western Sudan, said Human Rights Watch. More

June 3, 2011 — Today, Darfur is old news. Complex, seemingly irresolvable problems, fractured armed movements and the failure of the uprising against the government have silenced the outcry over what is happening in the region. Even today, the arrest of Ratko Mladi?, the architect of the Srebrenica massacre seems to generate little reflection about what power can do to innocent people, when in the hands of an amoral maniac. In Jebel Marra people do not need to be told. They know. They know today and have known for the last ten years what it means to be on the receiving end of an amoral government and the self-interested behavior of the international community. More
