earlier, the french government said it hoped an international conference on sudan being held in paris will break the "wall of silence" around the conflict. fighting between the sudanese armed forces and the rapid support forces erupted exactly a year ago. so far, it's claimed thousands of lives, 25 million people are now in need of aid there and 8.6 million people are displaced. the conflict has triggered what the united nations describes as "the world's largest hunger crisis". antonio guterres called on the international community to commit to more financial aid for sudan. take a listen. the sudanese people need more than humanitarian support. they need an end to the bloodshed. they need peace. and the only path out of this horror is a political solution. at this critical moment, in addition to global support for aid, we need a concerted global push for a cease—fire in sudan, followed by a comprehensive peace process. let's speak to john makoni in nairobi. he is the interim national director at world vision sudan. thanks for taking the time to speak to us. it's been a year now of t

tomorrow, the game here at the emirates tonight between arsenal and bayern munich, and the game in paris tomorrow. and normally police here in britain wouldn't comment on this kind of propaganda — they feel they'd just fuel the propaganda — but after the spanish interior ministry and the french interior ministry both said they were stepping up security at the games in madrid and paris, the metropolitan police here in london felt they also ought to say something — they said that security here will be robust tonight. but i don't get the impression that it will be significantly higher than usual. there's a little bit of an armed police presence tonight which is slightly unusual, but i don't think it's a significantly increased security operation. what they want people to do is go on being aware, as they always are in the uk at large venues, to make sure there isn't anything unusual and to let police know. but they aren't worrying that there's any really specific threat, because although there is incitement to attacks, there's no intelligence that an attack will take place. thanks to d
