We are excited to announce the launch of our new pamphlet, “Sudan’s Revolutionary and Popular Movements: A Research Report”, at the upcoming Marxism 2025 Festival.

MENA Solidarity is proud to partner with T A P E Collective to promote “Sudan, Remember Us”, an urgent new documentary directed by Hind Meddeb. The film opens on 27 June and will be screening in cinemas across the UK and around the world, with selected events featuring Q&As with the director.
Today marks six years since the bloody massacres unleashed by Sudan’s counter-revolutionary forces, led by the country’s two main militias—the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
On June 3, 2019, these state-backed death squads launched a coordinated assault on peaceful revolutionaries camped outside military headquarters in Khartoum and in 13 other cities across Sudan. Thousands were killed, women and men were raped, bodies were burned, and many were tied by their legs and thrown—still alive—into the Nile. It was a calculated act of terror, designed to crush a revolutionary movement that had dared to challenge decades of military dictatorship and capitalist exploitation.
Hundreds of delegates gathered in Derry for Equity’s annual conference, addressing significant issues facing artists globally. Key discussions focused on international solidarity, with insights about Sudan and Palestine. Speakers emphasised the need for concrete actions against oppression and war, culminating in a united call for solidarity and support for affected unions.
Despite the bloody war raging in Sudan between the country’s two major militias—the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces—bin workers in Sudan have sent a powerful message of solidarity to their counterparts in Birmingham, UK.

The protest highlighted the escalating gender-based violence against women since the onset of war in April 2023, calling for a just peace and liberation.
Join the march organised by the Sudanese Women’s Union UK & I in support of the revolution and in resistance to the ongoing war in Sudan and the appalling violence perpetrated against women. Sudanese women, in particular, have borne the brunt of this brutal conflict, their bodies transformed into weapons of war. They have endured unimaginable suffering, including rape, enslavement, and torture. It is crucial that we all stand in solidarity with them and amplify their voices.
By Abdulsalam Dallal On 8 December 2024 in the early morning, people in the streets and a mosque in Damascus announced: “saqat bashar al-kalb” (Bashar, the dog has fallen).
