Omar al-Baschir
Omar al-Baschir is a former Sudanese politician and military officer who served as the President of Sudan from 1989 until his ousting in 2019.

Al-Baschir was the first sitting president to be indicted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. His leadership was characterized by political repression, economic mismanagement, and conflict with various ethnic and political groups within Sudan.
