FEATURED IMAGE: A collage of recent featured images from Just Security articles. On the left, a white sign with blue writing on it reads "Camp Justice" with a blue sky behind it and a U.S. flag flying above. In the middle, a helicopter hovers over lines of tan-colored Humvee-like military vehicles on a tarmac. On the right, a man stands by as a fire rages in a livestock market area in al-Fasher, the capital of Sudan's North Darfur state.
