Sudan's Darfur Faces Humanitarian Catastrophe Amid Rising RSF Control

The ongoing conflict in Sudan, particularly in the Darfur region, has reached alarming levels as the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continue to assert control. Following the ousting of long-time dictator Omar al-Bashir in 2019, tensions between the Sudanese army and the RSF have escalated.

The situation has devolved into what the UN calls the world's largest humanitarian crisis, displacing over twelve million individuals. Reports of mass executions and ethnic cleansing have emerged, particularly in El Fasher, where satellite images reveal the devastating aftermath of violence.

The RSF, accused of severe human rights violations, has forced civilians to flee their homes, exacerbating an already dire situation. As the RSF's influence grows, control of key territories shifts, leaving the Sudanese army struggling to maintain order.

With external backing allegedly coming from nations like the United Arab Emirates and Chad, the conflict threatens to spiral further, highlighting an urgent need for intervention and humanitarian assistance.
