Officials Commented on the Matter.
The report details a campaign of violence that unfolded between early 2024 and October 2025, during which the RSF is alleged to have committed murder, forcible transfer, imprisonment, torture, rape, sexual slavery, and other forms of sexual violence.
The conflict in Darfur, which began in 2003, has been marked by widespread human rights abuses.
The RSF, initially formed as a militia, has been involved in numerous human rights abuses, including those cited in the Amnesty report.
The report notes that the siege and takeover of el — Fasher marked one of the bloodiest episodes in Sudan’s civil war, with the UN estimating that more than 6,000 people were killed during the siege and takeover. Amnesty International’s report is supported by the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission for the Sudan, which has also documented the RSF’s atrocities in el-Fasher.
The mission’s chair, Mohamed Chande Othman, has called for an immediate ceasefire in Sudan and for the urgent deployment of an international force to protect civilians.
The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) are also mentioned in the report as committing extensive war crimes, suggesting that the conflict is multifaceted with multiple parties involved.
The Human Rights Watch’s World Report on Sudan for 2026 highlights the ongoing conflict and the humanitarian crisis it has caused, with millions of people displaced and facing acute hunger.
The allegations against the RSF have sparked international concern and calls for action.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights has called for an investigation into the alleged crimes and for those responsible to be held accountable.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has also been called upon to investigate the situation in Sudan.
The report by Amnesty International comes at a time when Sudan is facing a complex political and humanitarian situation.
The country has been locked in a power struggle between the regular army and the RSF for the past three years, with the conflict taking a heavy toll on the civilian population.
As the situation in Sudan continues to evolve, the international community is closely monitoring the situation and calling for a resolution that protects the rights and well — being of all Sudanese citizens.
The allegations of crimes against humanity in el — Fasher are a stark reminder of the need for justice and accountability in the region. What happens next remains to be seen.
