Sudanese American doctor slain in Khartoum

Residential buildings damaged in fighting are seen in Khartoum, Sudan, Thursday, April 20, 2023. 

Hundreds of people have been killed in the fighting in Sudan in recent weeks, including a Sudanese American physician. Dr. Bushra Ibnauf lived in Khartoum and was training other medical professionals. He was stabbed outside his home earlier this week. And, there’s been a mixed reaction to the new bitcoin currency in El Salvador. Also, Venezuela’s best-known opposition leader, Juan Guaidó, unexpectedly arrived in the US this week. He was rerouted to Miami after getting kicked out of Colombia, where he attempted to attend a summit without an invite. Plus, “Pele” means “the best.”
