Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a dire warning regarding Sudanese paramilitary forces’ attacks in Darfur, suggesting a potential genocide against non-Arab ethnic communities. The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and allied militias have been accused of ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity, and war crimes, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths. HRW’s report details systematic campaigns targeting ethnic Massalit residents, including mass torture, rape, and looting. The destruction of civilian infrastructure and displacement of Massalit populations indicate ethnic cleansing efforts, raising concerns of genocide.
