Sudan, the legendary resilience of a people in the face of all adversity

Mudather Ahmed Yahya, medical director of Tokar Hospital, swam to and from the hospital, restoring services to patients after floods devastated eastern Sudan

The UAE has issued a statement on the Sudan peace talks in Geneva praising its representative for attending, as its aligned militia Rapid Support Forces continued to attack civilian targets in El Fasher, North Darfur on August 26. These attacks included heavy shelling of the Abu Shouk IDP camp, which resulted in the deaths of dozens of IDPs. In addition, intense artillery shelling in the market area led to the loss of 17 civilian lives. The police hospital was bombed and destroyed and the South Desert College was also targeted and destroyed.
How exactly should your alignment work to promote the preservation of human lives and peace in Sudan, or should it just be a washing machine for these crimes?
Also the day after this attack, militia, supported by UAE, launched an intense rocket bombardment on Al-Nada Hospital in Omdurman, destroying the hospital and seriously injuring seven patients. Patients were evacuated to other hospitals and the hospital was closed.
Despite this, the legendary resilience in the face of all adversity is the hallmark of Sudanese doctors and all health workers in Sudan . They have not been deterred by the crumbling health system, political upheaval, state violence, war, or even natural disasters. Nothing has ever defeated Sudanese doctors or stopped them from fulfilling their professional duty.
The picture of this article below exemplifies this legendary resilience, documenting Dr. Mudather Ahmed Yahya, medical director of Tokar Hospital, swimming to and from the hospital, restoring services to patients after floods devastated eastern Sudan, blocking roads and flooding crossings.
It is the doctors in my country that we adore and are proud to call colleagues
