In this film, Al Jazeera Arabic’s Tamer Almisshal meets Hamas’s political leader Ismail Haniya and discovers dramatic and surprising military preparations that may seriously concern Israel and its allies. Today, the Gaza Strip is blockaded by the two countries bordering […]

Sudan says it has played an important role in helping refugees from Ethiopia despite its own economic difficulties. But this crisis is not the only challenge posed by the conflict. The al-Fashaga triangle, where most of the refugees are being hosted, covers an area of about 250 square kilometres and it has around 600,000 acres of fertile land. Sudan says it is an integral part of its territory because it lies west of the line drawn by colonial Britain. But Ethiopia maintains an army presence there and Ethiopian farmers exploit large parts of the land. A joint committee has been trying for years, with little success, to demarcate a border. […]
