Will el-Fasher's fall change Sudan?
We analyse the fall of the strategic city of el-Fasher; hear what change Cameroon's President Paul Biya might bring; and can you save a language with just one native speaker?
As the strategic city of el-Fasher finally falls to the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group, we analyse what it means in Sudan’s ongoing civil war.

And why are South Africans trying to save an ancient language, which has just one speaker?
