In tonight's edition: Ethiopia's prime minister becomes the first foreign leader to visit Sudan since its descent into brutal conflict as trapped residents from the besieged city of Al Fashir speak of drones hunting down civilians in the streets. Also, neighbouring South Sudan is facing more economic turbulence as the value of its currency continues to plummet with civil servants earning a monthly salary of just 14 euros. Plus, women continue to be on the front lines of the fallout of war.
