PORT SUDAN: Sudan’s army-aligned government accused paramilitaries on Wednesday of attacking civilians in mosques during their recent takeover of the western city of El-Fasher, where satellite images show evidence of “continuing mass killing,” Yale researchers say. The capture of El-Fasher on Sunday after an 18-month siege marked by starvation and bombardment has solidified the Rapid Support Forces’ (RSF) control over Darfur, sparking fears of ethnically motivated violence reminiscent of the region’s darkest days.

RSF says it has seized control of army’s main base in Darfur, home to famine-stricken displacement camp

The UN has raised the alarm over reports of "atrocities" committed by the RSF.
