Sudan: "A Selfie to Save You or a Bullet to End You"

Sudanese actor Abdullah Abdelsalam, known as "Fadil," was surprised to see a group of soldiers from the Rapid Support Forces crossing the street near him. He chose to join them for a selfie, which quickly circulated on social media as a "smile" cutting through the images of death, destruction, looting, and pillaging in a country suffering for nearly two weeks since the outbreak of battles between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. The hashtag that surged regarding the photo resembled a loaded piece of advice given to the actor: "A selfie to save you or a bullet to end you."
