Hundreds of unarmed men have reportedly been executed near Sudan’s city of al-Fashir after Rapid Support Forces (RSF) seized the last army stronghold in Darfur following an 18-month siege.
Survivors who escaped to Tawila say fighters rounded up civilians, separated men from women and shot detainees after hurling racial slurs, with satellite analysis suggesting systematic ethnic-based killings.
Reuters and UN-verified videos show RSF fighters shooting captives and bodies scattered across streets, despite RSF denials and claims of “media exaggeration”.
Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab says violence mirrors early stages of the Rwandan genocide, describing “door-to-door clearance operations” targeting non-Arab communities.
International concern is growing amid accusations the UAE armed RSF forces, allegations it denies, as aid agencies warn tens of thousands remain trapped and unaccounted for.
