The ongoing conflict in Sudan has forced hundreds of thousands of people to flee their homes, with the besieged city of El-Fasher now teetering on the brink of collapse. A recent drone strike on a displacement shelter in El-Fasher has claimed at least 60 lives, marking a grim escalation in the violence. The attack, carried out by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), targeted the Dar al-Arqam camp, located within a university, using two drone strikes and eight artillery shells. According to the resistance committee for El-Fasher, composed of local citizens and activists, the strike resulted in the indiscriminate killing of children, women, and the elderly, with many victims reportedly burned beyond recognition. The RSF has maintained a 17-month siege on El-Fasher, aiming to seize the Sudanese army’s last stronghold in the Darfur region. The resistance group has described the situation as ‘beyond disaster and genocide,’ with residents enduring constant bombardment, severe food shortages, and the spread of disease. Sudan has been engulfed in conflict since 2023, following a power struggle between top commanders of the RSF and the Sudanese army, which has precipitated one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crises.
