Civilians Killed, Towns Destroyed in Rapid Support Forces Attacks

  • The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and allied Arab militias carried out numerous abuses against civilians in Habila county in Sudan’s South Kordofan state from December 2023 to March 2024, during conflict with the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement–North.
  • The abuses constitute war crimes and included killings, rapes, and abductions of ethnic Nuba residents, as well as the looting and destruction of homes. They led to mass displacement, turning Habila and neighboring Fayu into ghost towns.
  • The United Nations and the African Union should urgently deploy a mission to protect civilians in Sudan.
