Framing Analysis
Sudan's civil war, which began in April 2023, has produced tens of thousands of deaths and millions of displacements according to multiple reports. Supported documentation shows the Rapid Support Forces conducted systematic attacks on Zaghawa settlements around El-Fasher in 2024-2025, prompting allegations of crimes against humanity and genocide hallmarks from Amnesty International and a UN fact-finding mission. Claims of ongoing RSF attacks on el-Obeid, current army control of the city, and the scale of civilian impact there remain unverified and sourced to a single outlet.
