The United Nations fact‑finding mission determined that the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) carried out a systematic campaign of violence in Darfur that includes killings, sexual violence, abductions and forced starvation, and concluded that the campaign amounts to genocide. Amnesty International also reported that the RSF committed crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing during its campaign to seize El Fasher in North Darfur between 2024 and 2025.
Amnesty International called for a ceasefire, the stopping of arms supplies to conflict parties, and a halt to arms sales to the United Arab Emirates, according to Bluesky. The organization further stated that the RSF deliberately targeted children during the El Fasher campaign, as reported by AllAfrica, and that the RSF committed war crimes in the same operation, according to Daily Sabah.
