Clooney visits Sudan border region

George Clooney made a quiet visit to a volatile border region between Sudan and South Sudan last week ahead of testimony he's giving Wednesday before a U.S. Senate committee, The Associated Press reports. Clooney made the dangerous crossing from South Sudan into Sudan's Nuba Mountains region, Jonathan Hutson, a spokesman for the anti-genocide group the Enough Project, said Tuesday. Clooney saw burned-out villages and met with residents forced to seek shelter in caves because of aerial attacks by Sudan's military.
