Harrowing Tales of Violence and Displacement Amid Sudan’s Brutal Conflict

The ongoing civil war in Sudan, which began in April 2023, has resulted in over 10,000 deaths and displaced more than 7 million people. General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan’s Sudanese Armed Forces are clashing with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) led by General Mohamed Hamdan “Hemedti” Dagalo. The Media Line’s in-depth report reveals harrowing testimonies of violence and atrocities, including widespread rape and killings. Eyewitness accounts, like that of Yara Hussein, who fled to the Egypt-Sudan border, detail the dire situation of displaced citizens. Al-Tahir Abdullah’s efforts to provide contraceptive pills to rape victims and Bilal Jaber’s accounts of relief operations highlight the gravity of the crisis. Omar Hussein’s escape to Egypt after his son’s killing by RSF militia and Zulkifli’s documentation of RSF crimes further expose the brutality of the conflict. Sudanese political analyst al-Hadi Abdullah emphasizes the need for international intervention to stop RSF support and hold its leaders accountable.
