  • Young boys between the ages of 8 and 13 gather under the shade of a brightly-coloured canopy in the compound of the Governor of the war-torn region of north Darfur, Sudan. Dressed in white gowns and wearing red bandanas, they will soon celebrate a Sudanese rite of passage, the male circumcision. Only when they have recited the entire Qur'an [Koran] once through will they generally endure this traditional practice.
