In a series of recent escalations in el-Fasher, Sudan's Darfur region, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have intensified their attacks, leading to over 30 fatalities and numerous injuries. The RSF, which is battling for control against the Sudanese Armed Forces, is reportedly increasing violence following setbacks in urban areas. This surge in hostilities is particularly concerning given that el-Fasher houses over a million people, many of whom are displaced due to ongoing conflicts. The United Nations has noted that previous RSF assaults have resulted in significant casualties and forced massive evacuations from displacement camps.
"The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces have again attacked el-Fasher city in the western Darfur region of Sudan, killing more than 30 people, an activist group has said."
"Observers say attacks have intensified in recent months as the RSF suffered battlefield setbacks in Khartoum and other urban areas in the country's east and centre."
