Sudanese Minister Reports Mass Killings in El-Fasher
“The RSF killed 300 women during the first two days of their entry into El-Fasher,” Ishaq stated, further noting that the victims were “subjected to sexual assaults, violence, and torture.”
Ishaq warned that “anyone leaving El-Fasher toward Tawila (in North Darfur) is at risk, as the El-Fasher–Tawila road has become a road of death.”
She also mentioned that “there are still families in El-Fasher who are being subjected to dragging, torture, humiliation and sexual violence.”
The minister emphasized that “what happened in El-Fasher is a systematic act of ethnic cleansing, a major crime in which everyone is complicit through their silence.”
Local and international organizations reported that on Oct. 26, the RSF seized control of El-Fasher and carried out “massacres” targeting civilians.
These attacks have raised concerns about potentially deepening the geographic division of Sudan.
On Wednesday, RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti) acknowledged that his forces had committed “violations” in El-Fasher and stated that investigative committees had been established to look into the incidents.
