LONDON: His name — or, at least, his nom de guerre — is Issa Abu Lulu.

Reportedly a senior officer in the Rapid Support Forces, now locked in a vicious civil war with the Sudanese Armed Forces, Abu Lulu has been named the “star” of several distressing videos circulating on social media over the past week.

In at least two clips, filmed after the RSF’s recent takeover of the city of El-Fasher in western Sudan, he appears to shoot unarmed prisoners at point-blank range.

It is not the first time Abu Lulu has allowed himself to be filmed attacking helpless captives.
