Photographs of civilian victims of Khartoum’s aerial attacks on the people of the Nuba Mountains
Eric Reeves | April 7, 2016
I received yesterday from Dr. Tom Catena the photographs below, showing just a few of the recent victims that Dr. Catena has treated (he is approaching his fifth year of full-time commitment to the people of the Nuba, based near Kauda in the center of the Nuba Mountains. I have seen hundreds of such photographs, from Dr. Catena, from journalists reporting from the Nuba Mountains, from Nuba Reports, and other sources. But these show us the present; this is what is occurring on a daily basis and with steadily increasing ferocity as Khartoum intensifies its military campaign in South Kordofan.
Warning: these photographs are extremely graphic and disturbing. They are extremely difficult to view. The first photograph, of Dr. Catena, is the only exception:
Dr. Tom Catena in the Nuba Mountains of South Kordofan–saving lives held in contempt by the Khartoum regime and its supporters
One victim–there have been thousands
Another victim–children are not spared in the aerial onslaught
Another victim–many do not survive their wounds
Countless limbs have been lost or shattered
