I know there have been previous posts about getting e-sims to people in Sudan, but the one that is the most reliable is no longer available to view on X, so I don't know what would be the best source to post here. So, if anybody finds a great resource, please inbox me, and I will share it here. I will also keep looking for resources, of course.
I also don't know if the original post got taken down because of censorship or if it doesn't work anymore. I'm also hearing that apparently the e-sims aren't working in Sudan, but I can't confirm this. I just saw a few people talking about this on X.
Don't stop talking about Sudan. We all know what happens when telecommunications systems are heavily damaged and destroyed. The RSF is a genocidal militia and needs to be stopped.
My heart goes out to Sudanese people and their loved ones in their communities and all around the world with whom they may not be able to reach for some time. I cannot imagine how horrifying this is.
UPDATE: e-sims do not connect outside of Sudan.
Keep talking about Sudan. Don't remain silent about this.

A little bit on what’s happening in Sudan!!
I’m going to post more details explaining what’s been happening and what YOU can do to help. One of the biggest things though, is to TALK about Sudan. It’s not getting much focus. The people of Sudan have been suffering since April! There’s a full blackout right now!

Khartoum, Sudan — Days after Moscow launched its bloody war on Ukraine, a Russian cargo plane stood on a Khartoum runway, a strip of tarmac surrounded by red-orange sand. The aircraft’s manifest stated it was loaded with cookies. Sudan rarely, if ever, exports cookies.
A heated debate transpired between officials in a back office of Khartoum International Airport. They feared that inspecting the plane would vex the country’s increasingly pro-Russian military leadership. Multiple previous attempts to intercept suspicious Russian carriers had been stopped. Ultimately, however, the officials decided to board the plane.
Inside the hold, colorful boxes of cookies stretched out before them. Hidden just beneath were wooden crates of Sudan’s most precious resource. Gold. Roughly one ton of it.
This incident in February – recounted by multiple official Sudanese sources to CNN – is one of at least 16 known Russian gold smuggling flights out of Sudan, Africa’s third largest producer of the precious metal, over the last year and a half.

CNN reporter confronts staff at alleged Russian operation in Sudan
Multiple interviews with high-level Sudanese and US officials and troves of documents reviewed by CNN paint a picture of an elaborate Russian scheme to plunder Sudan’s riches in a bid to fortify Russia against increasingly robust Western sanctions and to buttress Moscow’s war effort in Ukraine.
The evidence also suggests that Russia has colluded with Sudan’s beleaguered military leadership, enabling billions of dollars in gold to bypass the Sudanese state and to deprive the poverty-stricken country of hundreds of millions in state revenue.
In exchange, Russia has lent powerful political and military backing to Sudan’s increasingly unpopular military leadership as it violently quashes the country’s pro-democracy movement.

Former and current US officials told CNN that Russia actively supported Sudan’s 2021 military coup which overthrew a transitional civilian government, dealing a devastating blow to the Sudanese pro-democracy movement that had toppled President Omar al-Bashir two years earlier.
“We’ve long known Russia is exploiting Sudan’s natural resources,” one former US official familiar with the matter told CNN. “In order to maintain access to those resources Russia encouraged the military coup.”
“As the rest of the world closed in on [Russia], they have a lot to gain from this relationship with Sudan’s generals and from helping the generals remain in power,” the former official added. “That ‘help’ runs the gamut from training and intelligence support to jointly benefiting from Sudan’s stolen gold.”

NUMEROUS injustices are continually being committed against Sudanese people. I implore you to stay informed about this. There are many resources people have shared on this platform -some I have re-posted and others I have personally uploaded. Please keep talking about Sudan. The RSF must be stopped, and the countries supporting this violence must also be held accountable.
This is also happening in a few weeks, so please spread the word/attend if you're able to. All out for Sudan:

‘They’re targeting us’: Sudan’s army cracks down on democracy activists
by Mat Nashed for Aljazeera, 9th January 2024.
"Mohamad Osman* was among them, but military intelligence arrested him as he was trying to flee on December 27."
"He was taken to a secret detention centre – commonly referred to as a “ghost house” in Sudan – where the army quickly found out that he was a member of the Kalakla resistance committee, one of many neighbourhood groups that spearheaded the pro-democracy movement before the war.
For five days, Osman was electrocuted and forced to look at seven corpses rotting on the cold concrete floor. He was going to be number eight."

This is one of the families linked in my pinned post. They are close to reaching their goal and I am resharing again in the hope that more people will be able to donate so they can evacuate.
Zahid Yasin has organized his campaign on behalf of a Sudanese family of 5 who are trying to evacuate and get treatment for their mother’s high blood pressure.
This campaign was first brought to my attention by @/bsonblast. You can find her on instagram, twitter, and tiktok.
