    AP Exclusive: Child soldiers recount horrors of Sudan’s war and presence of Colombian mercenaries

    Six former child soldiers in Sudan's war describe being shackled and forced to fight by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), with some trained by Colombian mercenaries. The RSF is accused of recruiting foreign mercenaries, including Colombians, while the United Arab Emirates is alleged to have armed the RSF, though it denies involvement, claiming shipments were humanitarian aid.
