Sudan’s war has killed tens of thousands and uprooted millions, with the United Nations’ humanitarian chief warning that Darfur has become an epicenter of human suffering. Donor retrenchment — including reduced U.S. foreign aid — has deepened the shortfall for relief operations, while regional powers’ backing of rival forces has helped fuel the conflict.
A week after the RSF militia captured the Sudanese city of Al-Faschir, satellite images point to ongoing mass killings. Yale University researchers identified dozens of clusters of objects resembling human bodies. Thousands of civilians are said to have been executed, while tens of thousands remain trapped.

Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces seized El Fasher, the army’s last holdout in Darfur, after a prolonged siege that trapped about 260,000 civilians. Rights groups verified videos showing executions as the army withdrew, saying it was to spare civilians.
