Horses have been used in the 21st century by the Janjaweed militias in the War in Darfur. |
When his family's village in Darfur was attacked by janjaweed militias, Idris Ishmael managed to run away. |
Though he averted his face to tell me this, his wife and children were killed when the janjaweed raided his village. |
They are rejected by relatives who are reminded of the terrors committed by the Janjaweed every time they look at their small faces. |
Darfur rebels dismissed the moves, saying they did not trust him and wanted to see disarmament of the feared janjaweed militias before agreeing to a ceasefire. |
Janjaweed attacks have often been accompanied by Sudanese bombers and ground troops. |
