The city of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur in western Sudan, has become the latest focal point of a devastating humanitarian emergency. After more than eighteen months of siege, the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces (RSF) captured El Fasher, following years of conflict with the national army, Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).
The result has been an immense escalation in violence, the collapse of basic services and mass displacement of civilians. According to rights groups and health networks, hundreds and possibly thousands of civilians have been killed in the aftermath and now shocking satellite images have emerged to support the same.
