With the war in Sudan crossing the one-year mark with no end in sight, there's been a wonderful show of solidarity among African brothers.

The Sudanese community in Somalia held a football tournament with help from their embassy in Mogadishu. Hosted over Ramadan, it was a way for Sudanese refugees to come together despite being away from their homeland.

Sudan-Somalia solidarity goes back decades. Both countries established relations upon independence and have enjoyed strong bilateral ties ever since. When civil war gripped Somalia three decades ago, Sudan graciously hosted many Somali refugees, including young students.

This latest tournament is perhaps another glimpse of what an Africa without European borders could look like. Her people free to help each other move around the continent. This heartwarming report is from Chinese network CGTN.
