👉 Al Jazeera Media Network in the context of Sudanese Armed Forces

The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF; Arabic: القوات المسلحة السودانية, romanizedAl-Qūwāt Al-Musallaḥah as-Sūdāniyah) are the military forces of the Republic of Sudan. The force strength has been estimated at 109,300 personnel in 2011 (by IISS), 200,000 personnel before the current war in Sudan broke out in 2023 (by the CIA), and 300,000 personnel in 2024 (by Al Jazeera).

In 2016–2017, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) had 40,000 members participating in the Yemeni Civil War (of which 10,000 returned to Sudan by October 2019). As of 2025, the SAF and RSF remain in armed conflict against one another in the ongoing civil war in Sudan.

Al Jazeera Media Network in the context of Islam in Iceland

Islam in Iceland is a minority religion. The Pew Research Center estimated that the number of Muslims in Iceland was below its 10,000 minimum threshold, and official statistics put the figure at under 1,300, or 0.33% out of the total population of 385,230.

In 2011, Icelandic Muslims attracted the interest of Al Jazeera; the channel planned a documentary dealing with Muslims in Iceland and New Zealand. Al Jazeera was interested in how Ramadan is honored in the higher latitudes where the night without sun and the sun is 24/7 can be of unusual length when compared to the majority-Muslim lands.

Al Jazeera Media Network in the context of Al Jazeera English

Al Jazeera English (AJE; Arabic: الجزيرة, romanizedal-jazīrah, lit.'the island', pronounced [æl (d)ʒæˈziːrɐ]), often referred to as Al Jazeera, is a 24-hour English-language news channel operating under the Al Jazeera Media Network, which is funded in part by the government of Qatar. The network launched its English-language division in 2006. It is the first global English-language news channel to be headquartered in the Middle East.

Al Jazeera has been recognised for in-depth and frontline reporting, particularly in conflict zones such as the Arab Spring and the Gaza–Israel conflict. Al Jazeera's coverage of the Arab Spring has won the network numerous awards, including the Peabody Award. It positions itself as an alternative media platform to prominent Western media outlets such as CNN and the BBC, focusing on narrative reporting where subjects present their own stories.
