RSF-led violence in Sudan bears ‘hallmarks of genocide’: UN


Violence by the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group in the Sudanese city of al-Fashir bears “the hallmarks of genocide”, the foreign ministers of the Sudan core group at the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) said in a statement on Thursday.
The group concludes that RSF-led violence constitutes war crimes and crimes against humanity, and bears the hallmarks of genocide, the ministers said in a statement circulated by the German foreign ministry.
The countries, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, and the United Kingdom, said they planned to form a coalition to prevent further atrocities in Sudan.
