Show Notes

A landslide that followed days of heavy rain, has killed hundreds of people in the remote Marra Mountains in western Sudan, and many survivors may still be trapped in deep valleys. How do aid agencies help people hit by a natural disaster but also caught in the middle of a war?   A new report details an increase in disappearances, kidnappings and torture in Tanzania.  We hear from relatives looking for their family members.   And a new study warns that people are using digital platforms like TikTok to sell the meat of endangered animals.
