Sudan's rival generals share a troubled past: genocide in Darfur

A boat from Sudan with nearly 1,700 civilians from more than 50 countries arrives in Jedda, Saudi Arabia on Wednesday after crossing the Red Sea. Foreigners and Sudanese citizens have been fleeing Sudan since fighting broke out between two rival generals nearly two weeks ago.

Two generals are currently battling for control of Sudan's capital Khartoum. In the early 2000s, both played key roles in the government's brutal crackdown in Darfur, which was ruled a genocide.
