Episode description
Civil war has been raging in Sudan for two years. The conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has seen famine, destruction, and millions driven from their homes.
Among them, the family and friends of our Africa correspondent Yousra Elbagir. She was born in Khartoum and recently returned to her childhood home.
Yousra joins Niall Paterson on the Sky News Daily to share her assessment of what returning home, after it had been ransacked during the ongoing war, was like.
