"The RSF has been killing civilians and solidifying its control over the West Darfur state after taking over el-Fasher, the last remaining army stronghold in the region, in late October. The SAF holds most of the eastern and central parts of the country, including capital Khartoum and parts of Kordofan. But the RSF and some of its allied militias have been mobilising troops and equipment to take more areas in central Kordofan."
"Witnesses and international aid agencies working on the ground in Darfur recounted widespread horrific instances of atrocities committed by the RSF in the aftermath of its bloody takeover of el-Fasher. Evidence shows RSF militias engaged in mass killings, rape of women and girls, and taking hostages for ransom. Thousands of people remain missing after fleeing el-Fasher for surrounding areas like Tawila."
Sudan's two rival forces, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), continue fierce fighting across the country. The RSF has consolidated control over West Darfur after capturing el-Fasher and is advancing into central Kordofan toward Babnusa and el-Obeid to gain strategic and economic advantages. The SAF retains most eastern and central regions including Khartoum and has seized Kazqil and Um Dam Haj Ahmed in North Kordofan. Widespread atrocities by RSF militias in Darfur include mass killings, rape, and hostage-taking, leaving thousands missing and driving massive civilian displacement amid dire humanitarian conditions.
