The #Sudan Doctors Network, a medical group tracking the #war, said fighters from the Rapid Support Forces on Tuesday “cold-bloodedly killed everyone they found inside the Saudi Hospital, including patients, their companions, & anyone else present in the wards.”
Sudanese residents & aid workers revealed harrowing details of atrocities by the #RSF, fighting since 2023 to take over Africa’s third largest nation, after they seized the army’s last stronghold in #Darfur after over 500 days of siege.
“The Janjaweed showed no mercy for anyone,” said Umm Amena, mother of 4 children who fled the city Monday after 2 days, using a Sudanese term for the #RSF.
Amena was among 3 dozen people, mostly women & children, who were detained for a day by RSF fighters in an abandoned house close to the Saudi Hospital in #elFasher.
AP spoke w/ Amena & 4 others who managed to flee el-Fasher arriving exhausted & dehydrated early Tues in nearby town Tawila, ~60km west of el-Fasher, which hosts >650k #displaced.
