It’s hard to overstate the scale of death in Darfur. “These are people being shot in the back and shot while they’re trying to escape. It’s as bad as it could possibly get,” a former Africa analyst for the C.I.A. said. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/g4dHaA

Los ultras nunca serán aliados de los migrantes.
