In Sudan, at least 71 people have now died following the death of Sudan’s Vice President John Garang. 800 more people have been injured in sectarian fighting. Garang died in a helicopter crash over the weekend. Garang is a former leader of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement which fought for 21 years against the Islamic government in Khartoum. It was Africa’s longest and costliest civil war. A peace agreement was signed in January. Three weeks ago, he was sworn in as Sudan’s first vice-president.
