The conflict has produced the world\u2019s worst humanitarian crisis, with more than 28 million people facing acute hunger, according to aid agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The UN has also warned that widespread sexual violence against men, women and children is being used as a weapon of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ethnic cleansing in Darfur<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After being driven out of Khartoum in March last year, the RSF shifted its focus towards consolidating control over Darfur by capturing el-Fasher and expanding its reach into the Kordofan states in southern Sudan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amnesty.org\/en\/latest\/news\/2026\/07\/sudan-rsf-atrocities-in-el-fasher-a-stain-on-the-conscience-of-humanity-new-report\/\">Amnesty<\/a> said RSF fighters committed grave human rights violations in and around el-Fasher during an 18-month siege.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cChildren were not collateral damage of this violence \u2014 often, they were deliberately targeted and have suffered immensely. They have been killed, injured, raped, abducted, and forcibly recruited on a massive scale,\u201d said Amnesty International Secretary General Agn\u00e8s Callamard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report, based on dozens of accounts from more than 200 survivors, said evidence gathered \u201cmay be relevant to the crime of genocide\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One 17-year-old survivor from Abu Zerega, south of el-Fasher, described being attacked by RSF fighters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey tied me up and beat me with sticks and the back of an AK-47. Then one of them approached on a camel and\u2026 just shot me in the leg,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The teenager, who now uses crutches, said 8 of his cousins, including 4 boys aged between 11 and 17, were killed in the same attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amnesty.org\/en\/latest\/news\/2026\/07\/sudan-rsf-atrocities-in-el-fasher-a-stain-on-the-conscience-of-humanity-new-report\/\">Amnesty <\/a>researchers reviewed 89 open-source videos and analysed satellite imagery from North Darfur. The rights group said many victims were targeted and killed because of their ethnic identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Amnesty, Arab fighters from the RSF targeted members of non-Arab communities, often using ethnic slurs translated as \u201cslave\u201d or \u201cservant\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Arab militias associated with the RSF have a long history of violence against black African communities in Darfur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In el-Fasher, the armed groups defending the city were predominantly from the Zaghawa ethnic group. Amnesty said RSF fighters targeted Zaghawa civilians as well as combatants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Witnesses also described mass killings, sexual violence and the deliberate targeting of children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pressure grows on RSF backers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Callamard said the world had been warned about the horrors facing civilians in el-Fasher as the RSF laid siege to the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is a stain on the conscience of humanity,\u201d she said, calling for an immediate ceasefire and the urgent deployment of an international force to protect civilians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed alignleft is-type-wp-embed is-provider-1-nation-media wp-block-embed-1-nation-media\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"aGlQ7aj6il\"><a href=\"https:\/\/1nationmedia.com\/index.php\/2026\/05\/16\/sudans-humanitarian-catastrophe-worsens-as-rsf-and-the-uae-face-scrutiny\/\">Sudan\u2019s humanitarian catastrophe worsens as RSF and the UAE face scrutiny<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201cSudan\u2019s humanitarian catastrophe worsens as RSF and the UAE face scrutiny\u201d \u2014 1 Nation Media\" src=\"https:\/\/1nationmedia.com\/index.php\/2026\/05\/16\/sudans-humanitarian-catastrophe-worsens-as-rsf-and-the-uae-face-scrutiny\/embed\/#?secret=yRVYJfDoMP#?secret=aGlQ7aj6il\" data-secret=\"aGlQ7aj6il\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amnesty.org\/en\/latest\/news\/2026\/07\/sudan-rsf-atrocities-in-el-fasher-a-stain-on-the-conscience-of-humanity-new-report\/\">Amnesty <\/a>said it had identified RSF commanders responsible for violations of international law and called for accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RSF leadership has acknowledged that some violations occurred and claimed it is investigating them, but continues to insist that the scale of the atrocities is being exaggerated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report adds to mounting evidence of mass atrocities in el-Fasher. The UN previously warned that violence in the city bore the \u201challmarks of genocide\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the UN, more than 6,000 people were killed in just 3 days during the assault on el-Fasher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">International pressure is now growing on the foreign backers fuelling Sudan\u2019s war, including the UAE, which has repeatedly been accused of supporting the RSF despite the militia\u2019s record of massacres, sexual violence and ethnic cleansing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many Sudanese civilians, especially in Darfur, the latest report confirms what survivors have been saying for years: the RSF\u2019s campaign is not merely a fight for territory, but a campaign of terror against communities already scarred by decades of violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sudan\u2019s UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) committed crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing during their campaign to seize el-Fasher in Darfur, according to a new Amnesty International report.
