Abstract

Drawing of houses in a village in Darfur burning after being bombed by Sudanese military airplanes. Reinforcements of heavily armed soldiers come in trucks to attack the villages and stop civilians from escaping.

Alt Text

A child's hand-drawn illustration on a lined notebook page that depicts two similar scenes on each half of the page. Each side shows airplanes dropping ordinance on houses below and setting them on fire, rows of verdant trees, and military personnel in armored trucks with mounted machine guns. The biggest difference between the two halves is the color of the soldiers' trucks and uniforms, which are black and red on the left image and green camouflage on the right.
