 **Who Was Involved With Darfur ? ** 

On one side of the war, it is mainly of the Sudanese military ; Janaweed. Janaweed recruited mostly from Afro-Arab Abbala tribes of the northern Rizeigatregian in Sundan. The other side is made up of rebel groups, the Sudan Liberation Movement. Sundan recruited from the non-Arab Fur, Zaghawa and Masalit. The Sudanese government, has supported the Janaweed for participating in joint attacks targeting civilians. As the conflict in Darfur goes into its sixth year, conditions continue to become worse for civilians. Thousands of people have been killed. About 2.5 million people involved with Darfur have left their homes and continue to live in camps throughout Darfur. Half of those affected by Darfur are children. Of these, around 700,000 have grown up knowing nothing but Darfur. Around 4,500 children are participating with armed forces and or groups.   http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/sudan_darfuroverview.html http://www.savedarfur.org/content?splash=yes
