What are the consequences of RSF's control in el-Fasher?

Recent developments in Sudan highlight a grave humanitarian crisis, particularly in el-Fasher, where the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have been accused of egregious violations against civilians. Reports from the Yale Humanitarian Research Lab indicate possible mass killings, with satellite imagery suggesting the presence of human remains.

The RSF’s actions, viewed as targeting specific ethnic groups, raise serious allegations of war crimes and genocide. As the RSF gains control over el-Fasher, the situation grows increasingly dire, with civilians facing famine and a complete lack of aid.

The international community, including Saudi Arabia, has condemned these violations, urging a ceasefire and dialogue. The conflict has already resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and millions displaced, igniting fears of a fragmented Sudan.

The implications of RSF's dominance in el-Fasher could alter the dynamics of the ongoing war, threatening the safety and security of countless civilians trapped amid the turmoil.
