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:
