Sudan’s cycle of violence: ‘There is a genocide going on in west Darfur’

When they took Ardamata they made an announcement that all boys should come out. When they did, they started shooting them all.

Fuck, that's very fucked up.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

CIR’s Sudan Witness project has been monitoring human rights violations in the region, which is closed to foreigners and journalists, using open-source information, satellite imagery and Nasa-provided data, as well as gathering images from social media that are geolocated.

The Masalit have been targeted as supporters of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in the tensions and outbreaks of violence surrounding west Darfur’s capital of El Geneina.

The much-feared RSF, led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, has been fighting SAF forces loyal to General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan since 15 April, when the two leaders began a tussle for power that again toppled Sudan into a civil war.

“The latest reports from the Darfur region depict a deeply disturbing picture of continued systematic and indiscriminate attacks against civilians, including along ethnic lines,” says Nderitu.

“These weapon systems have the capacity to cause significant damage and their use poses a risk to the civilian population,” says Anouk Theunissen, the team leader for CIR’s Sudan Witness project.

The conflict is creating a humanitarian crisis in El Fasher in north Darfur, says Dr Mohammed Shatta, who is coordinating field operations for charity Relief International.
