We continue our conversation with documentary filmmaker Julia Steers about her reporting on the conflict in Sudan, where the military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces have been locked in a battle for control since 2023. While both sides are accused of war crimes, the RSF drew global condemnation after its fighters carried out atrocities in the city of El Fasher in October of 2025, with the United Nations describing them as “acts of genocide.” Advocates now fear further mass killings in the besieged city of El Obeid.
Steers contributed to a recent investigation titled “Inside the Secret Network Fueling Sudan’s War.”
