Overview
- Over 300 civilians, including children and humanitarian workers, were killed in recent RSF attacks on refugee camps Zamzam and Abu Shouk in Darfur, according to UN reports.
- The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have taken control of the Zamzam camp, displacing tens of thousands and drawing accusations of ethnic cleansing against non-Arab populations.
- International leaders, including UN Secretary-General António Guterres, are urging an immediate halt to foreign arms shipments fueling the conflict, with the UAE facing allegations of aiding the RSF.
- At a London conference, the EU, UK, and other nations pledged over €600 million in humanitarian aid, but peace negotiations remain stalled as both warring factions refuse to engage.
- The conflict has displaced nearly 13 million people, with 30 million in need of aid, as Sudan faces the world's worst humanitarian crisis, marked by hunger, disease, and systemic sexual violence.
