#Sudan - Ayin Network: While the role of gold in financing Sudan's war has been well documented, there is another resource—"the golden tears of Africa," or gum arabic—that has played a key role in fuelling the ongoing conflict.
Sudan controls roughly 70-80% of the world's supply of gum arabic, a resource found in soft drinks, pharmaceuticals, certain foods, cosmetics, etc. The Rapid Support Forces currently control approximately 80% of the gum arabic trade, frequently smuggling it out of the country.
Two French companies lead in gum arabic processing.

At Least 17 Dead in Fighting on Sudan's Border with Chad — Asharq Al-Awsat [2026-03-18]

MSF staff at a hospital in Tine, Chad, reported treating patients “without water or electricity,” relying on generators and solar panels, with medicine stockpiles running low. Chad had closed its border “until further notice” the previous month to limit the conflict’s spread into its territory.
Chad relocates Sudan refugees as the army deploys near the border — CGTN [2026-03-24]

President Mahamat Idriss Déby last week ordered the army to get ready in response to a drone strike from Sudan, which killed at least 17 people in Chad—including mourners attending a funeral. Authorities report that an initial group of about 2,300 refugees, over half of whom are women and children, have started moving inland from the border town of Tiné in the Ennedi Est region. The relocation effort, which started over the weekend, is expected to expand to other border transit points. Officials indicate the move is urgent, with the army set to secure the frontier in the coming days amid rising tensions. Chad has also reinforced its military presence and signaled it could carry out operations inside Sudan if attacks persist. The situation is tied to the ongoing conflict in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces, which erupted in April 2023. The violence has repeatedly spilled across the border, displacing civilians and causing casualties on Chadian soil.
