Last week, the International Criminal Court issued its first ever warrant against a sitting head of state, President Omar al-Bashir of Sudan, for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Shortly after, the Sudanese government expelled international aid groups. Some estimate that expulsion leaves as many as one million people without food, health care and drinking water. We examine the recent developments in Sudan.
