'Not a proxy war': Sudan civil war 'would not go on like this' without role of international players

Gavin Lee is pleased to welcome Jan Pospisil, Sudan Affairs Analyst at the Peace and Conflict Resolution Evidence Platform. He says the siege has been going on for almost a year, and the RSF seems committed to seizing el-Obeid. While Pospisil explains that Sudan's civil war is not a proxy war in the literal sense, he does make clear that "without international support, the war would not go on like this'".
