It's a shootout between mobsters, but the foot soldiers are themselves motivated by the grievance of generations of deprivation.

Alex de Waal discusses the war inside Sudan and the impact of internal and external forces on the continued bloodshed. His book on Sudan is called Sudan's Unfinished Democracy, and it is published by Oxford Press. https://global.oup.com/academic/product/sudans-unfinished-democracy-9780197657546?lang=en&cc=sr
