Sudanese men prepare food before an Iftar dinner by the side of the Khartoum highway in the village of al-Nuba on June 23, 2016 during the Muslim feating month of ramadan.
As the sun sets over the Sudanese village of Al-Nuba, Ibrahim Abdelrahim rolls out carpets by the side of the Khartoum highway and his friends line them with plates of food. Minutes later, groups of villagers rush into the road, shouting and waving down approaching vehicles. One brings a bus to a halt in the middle of the highway. Others join him and force the driver to park up.
