Geneva: Ongoing civil war in Sudan has intensified violence across the country. Reports suggest that the paramilitary group that captured the city of El Fasher has been carrying out systematic mass killings. Around 460 people were massacred at Saudi Hospital.
The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), leading the rebel offensive, have seized control of North Darfur, triggering mass displacement in the region. For the past 18 months, RSF troops have besieged El Fasher, attacking homes and hospitals. Numerous people have been subjected to sexual violence and many have lost their lives.
Witnesses report that the attackers abducted doctors and nurses from the hospital, returned later, and shot dead other staff, patients, and attendants. The forces allegedly came back again to kill the remaining survivors.
