Ivor Prickett, War on the Nile – Fragmented Sudan
A brutal civil war has been raging in Sudan for over two years, on the edges of the world’s attention. More than eleven million people have been displaced and up to 150,000 have been killed. Last year, the Irish photographer (b.1983) managed to travel to the devastated country, on assignment for the New York Times. His pictures document one of the planet’s greatest humanitarian disasters. The harrowing images show the tragedy in the country, as well as the hopeless situation of the refugees.
