MENA Media
•7 days
11 sources in MENA Media are amplifying 17 narrative items relating to the narrative of Sudan's ongoing conflict. These narratives highlight the army's territorial gains, the humanitarian crisis resulting from the war, and the RSF's silence, illustrating the interconnectedness of military actions, humanitarian consequences, and the struggle for power in Sudan.
Reviewing a number of the most relevant narrative items indicates that Daily Sabah portrays the army's seizure of Souq Libya in a positive light, emphasizing the military's claims of victory and control over key areas in Khartoum. The language used includes terms like "major victory" and "strategic gain," which reflect a triumphant tone. However, while the coverage may boost army morale, it downplays the devastating humanitarian crisis unfolding as a result of the conflict, using comparatively less emotive language when addressing the plight of displaced millions and the ongoing famine. Compared to other outlets, Daily Sabah presents the events with a noticeable bias towards the army, avoiding critically evaluating the broader implications of their actions. This choice of coverage may leave readers wanting a more balanced perspective that also highlights the humanitarian impact of the war, which is critical in fully understanding the complexity of the situation in Sudan.
