Sudan Conflict Escalates with New Attacks and Genocide Fears in Darfur
As the Sudanese civil war enters its third year, recent RSF assaults on refugee camps and ethnic violence in Darfur have intensified calls for international action.
- The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have stormed the Zamzam refugee camp in Darfur, displacing over 500,000 people and destroying critical infrastructure, including the last hospital in the area.
- The United Nations has warned of ethnic cleansing targeting non-Arab populations, with experts comparing the situation to previous genocides in Darfur and Rwanda.
- Humanitarian aid remains critically underfunded, with only 10% of the $1.8 billion needed secured, leaving millions without adequate food, medical care, or shelter.
- A high-level international conference is being held in London to address the crisis, focusing on de-escalation, halting external arms flows, and increasing humanitarian support.
- UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called for an immediate end to arms supplies to both sides, as external support continues to fuel the conflict, with accusations against the UAE and other actors.
