New Satellite Evidence Points to Ongoing Massacres in El Fasher After RSF Seizure

Overview

• A new Yale Humanitarian Research Lab report identifies at least 31 sites consistent with human bodies in El Fasher between Monday and Friday and warns many residents may be dead, detained or hiding.
• Médecins Sans Frontières says very few people have reached nearby Tawila and fears many who endured the siege did not survive or were pursued when fleeing.
• The World Health Organization confirms at least 460 people were killed inside a hospital in the city, and MSF reports more than 200 cases of sexual violence in a single month.
• Verified videos show a commander known as Abu Lulu executing captives; the RSF says he has been arrested and will face trial, a pledge met with skepticism by Sudan analysts and rights advocates.
• UN officials cite evidence of ethnically motivated killings, telecoms remain largely down, tens of thousands are trapped or displaced, and diplomats spotlight alleged foreign support that is fueling the war.
