Second day reporting in Damascus and it’s amazing to see the way the people I’m interviewing lean into the microphone to give me their full name. This was impossible under the regime. Syrians are finding their voices. It’s too soon to know for how long this freedom will last.

The Lobito Corridor railway project is being touted as a US riposte to China's dominance over critical minerals in central Africa. But the railway is unlikely to dent China's position. Listen to my piece for @NPR, from Congo's mining capital Kolwezi. npr.org/2024/12/04/nx-…

A top Syrian opposition militiaman tells me the “political timing” is the key to this lightning advance. Some factors: - Russia distracted in Ukraine - Hezbollah/Iran backed groups distracted in Lebanon - Intense Israeli airstrikes on Iran backed militias in Syria More 👇

The stunning rebel advance in Syria continues. They’ve now reached the outskirts of Hama, where protests were crushed by the regime at the start of the uprising. Reports of regime supporters fleeing the city. Still no word from Assad, who is said to be in Moscow.

How the dramatic developments in Syria could affect Russia's influence in Libya:

While I’m not predicting Russia will abandon Tartus or Latakia, the proximity of Suqaylabiyah — less than 100 kilometers from Tartus — must be noted here. Any potential loss by Moscow of these ports would reshape the fate of the #Haftar family. Russia’s extremely pleasant &…

The sudden apparent take over Aleppo by Syrian opposition militias is an extraordinary development. A 12 year civil war. And then, in about two days, the Syrian regime loses control of the country’s second largest city.

Impactful reporting by @ea_akin As the war continues, the health system in Sudan is barely functioning. Hospitals are overwhelmed. There is not enough medicine or medical supplies. Grateful for the work of @SAPA_ORG & health workers who are working tirelessly to provide care.

Our report on a wave of horrific killings by the RSF in Gezira state, east-central Sudan. With eye witness accounts shared by @SAPA_ORG . A shocking 45,000 people have been displaced by the violence in just one week, according to the UN #KeepEyesOnSudan npr.org/2024/10/28/nx-…

The farmers that fed Sudan are at risk of facing famine. We went to the edges of Al-Jazira state where farmers are fearing a failed harvest. Then to Gadarif, where displaced families are relying on donated food. Our 3rd & final dispatch from Sudan: news.sky.com/story/there-is…
