Where do angels live? In hell. My escape from the war in Sudan

<p><em>I wrote this piece when I started trauma therapy back in the UK following my extraction, in April, from the war in Sudan. Not many people have read my story. It&rsquo;s been more or less 7 months since I escaped the war. Now I feel ready to share my story widely. As an archaeologist researching Sudanese history, travelling to Sudan for fieldwork is the most expected period of my year. Though this time my experience in the country was quite different. I spent 11 days in the middle of the war zone in central Khartoum with barely any food and water. The Rapid Support Forces took over my hotel and pushed my group to the streets amid dead bodies, gun shootings and air strikes. Waiting for death, we walked across the destroyed streets of a ghost town with nowhere to go, until a random man gave us shelter, water, and food and planned my escape by tuk-tuk from the middle of the war zone to a safe place from where I could be evacuated.</em></p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@rennanlemos/where-do-angels-live-in-hell-my-escape-from-war-in-sudan-f4b5aeeb0edd"><strong>Visit Now</strong></a></p>
