 Kim Jong Un tells North Koreans to 'turn their dogs into soup' during deadly heatwave North Koreans have been urged to eat dog soup as the country struggles to manage a brutal heatwave. A state newspaper in the country published an interview with one of the nation's top doctors that encouraged citizens to start making the highly controversial soup dish. Translated as "sweet meat soup", the article published in Rodong Sinmun describes the dish as offering North Koreans a "highly nutritious" food option that can help counter the symptoms of heat stroke, such as "cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and hyperthyroidism", according to the South China Morning Post. It has also long been believed to cause increased virility in men, as well as boosting immune systems. North Korea's capital city Pyongyang has its own dog meat restaurant that specialises in dangogi guk, with Kim Jong Un known to be a big fan, serving the dish at dinner parties and st...

ICC DEPUTY PROSECUTOR SAYS 'WAR CRIMES, CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY' ONGOING IN SUDAN'S DARFUR. (PHOTO).


 ICC deputy prosecutor says 'war crimes, crimes against humanity' ongoing in Sudan's Darfur


There are "reasonable grounds to believe that war crimes and crimes against humanity" are being committed in Sudan's western Darfur region, the deputy prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) said, TRT Afrika reported.


Outlining her office's probe of the devastating conflict which has raged since 2023, Nazhat Shameem Khan told the UN Security Council on Thursday that it was "difficult to find appropriate words to describe the depth of suffering in Darfur."


"On the basis of our independent investigations, the position of our office is clear. We have reasonable grounds to believe that war crimes and crimes against humanity, have been and are continuing to be committed in Darfur," she said.


The prosecutor's office focused its probe on crimes committed in West Darfur, Khan said, interviewing victims who fled to neighbouring Chad.


‘There should no illusion’


She detailed an "intolerable" humanitarian situation, with apparent targeting of hospitals and humanitarian convoys, while warning that "famine is escalating" as aid is unable to reach "those in dire need."


"People are being deprived of water and food. Rape and sexual violence are being weaponised," Khan said, adding that abductions for ransom had become "common practice."


"And yet we should not be under any illusion, things can still get worse."


The Security Council referred the situation in Darfur to the ICC in 2005, with some 300,000 people killed during a previous armed conflict in the region in the 2000s.


In 2023, the ICC opened a fresh probe into war crimes in Darfur after a new conflict erupted between the Sudanese army and rival paramilitary the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).


The RSF's predecessor, then government-linked militia known as the Janjaweed, was accused of genocide two decades ago in the vast western region.
