#Sudan’s Undersecretary of the Ministry of Culture and Information, Graham Abdelgader, said the government has recovered 570 Sudanese antiquities that were looted during the uprising of the UAE-backed Janjaweed militia and the subsequent ransacking of museums.
He explained that the stolen items are part of a much larger haul, nearly 4,000 artifacts taken from the National Museum, in addition to about 200 pieces stolen from the Khalifa House Museum in Omdurman.
Abdelgader said the recovery operations were carried out through joint efforts between the ministry, security agencies, Interpol, and UNESCO.
He added that the authorities are continuing to track down the remaining looted artifacts in coordination with international organizations and friendly countries, stressing that the goal is to restore Sudan’s stolen history and collective memory.
He also noted that before the war, around 40 archaeological missions were operating across different sites in Sudan, but most were forced to leave the country because of the deteriorating security situation.

On Sept. 2, 1972, the Soviet Union and Canada went head-to-head in the first game of The Summit Series.
Nearly everyone in Canada expected Team Canada to dominate the series, but this first game would be a rude awakening.
This is the story of Game One.

Sir Sandford Fleming was one of the most important Canadians of the 19th century.
Best known for his promotion of Standard Time, he had a massive impact on Canada from surveying our railroads to creating our first stamp.

On July 17, 1976, Canada hosted the Olympics for the first time.
Held in Montreal, it featured 6,073 athletes competing in 198 events and 21 sports.
The cost of the Olympics would take 30 years to pay off.
This is the story of the 1976 Olympics.
