Amnesty denounces war crimes by Sudan’s militia

CAIRO: Amnesty International on Tuesday said that atrocities committed by a Sudanese paramilitary group in a Darfur city constituted war crimes, the latest such accusation in the country’s devastating war. In a report, the international rights group said that it gathered testimony describing barbarities carried out by the Rapid Support Forces, or RSF, when its fighters wrestled control of El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur province, from the army late last month. The group said that the atrocities included executing dozens of unarmed men, and raping women and girls.
