Peace talks to end the civil war in Sudan are happening in London today. It's been two years of war. 100,000 people have been killed and 15 million are displaced. This is the world's largest humanitarian crisis. The UN says famine there is the worst the world has seen in decades. Sudanese officials have criticized the negotiations in London.

They say their representatives weren't invited and that even as talks were happening, massacres were still taking place in the western region of Darfur. NPR's Emmanuel Akinwotu has been covering this since the beginning. He's at that conference in London and he is on his way back to Sudan. You can follow his ongoing coverage of the conflict on NPR.org.

In fact, late on Friday, the Trump administration outlined a substantial carve-out for mobile phones, computers, and other electronics. But that may not last very long, and neither side appears ready to back down.
