🚨 Definitive proof of RSF slaughtering unknown thousands of civilians in El Fasher from @HRL_YaleSPH 🚨 We mapped and studied 150 + body piles from the first week of RSF control of the city. No civilian pattern of life. Almost no civilian burial activity. Mass body disposal ops.
Humanitarian Research Lab (HRL) at YSPH@HRL_YaleSPH

🚨 MAJOR REPORT🚨 RSF conducted widespread and systematic mass killing in El Fasher. @HRL_YaleSPH identifies 150 clusters of objects consistent with human remains throughout El Fasher and surrounding areas between 26 October - 1 November 2025. Since then, RSF has destroyed and concealed evidence of its widespread mass killings through burial, burning, and removal of human remains on a mass scale. #KeepEyesOnSudan 🛰️@Vantortech @AirbusDS medicine.yale.edu/lab/khoshnood/…

The RSF captures Babanusa in West Kordofan & SAF double tap drone strike targets Kouma, South Kordofan killing at least 48 people - including civilians and young children. The Kordofans are now the epicentre of Sudan's brutal war with the most vulnerable caught in the crossfire

As of today - only around 10,500 new arrivals registered in Tawila, the nearest safe displacement centre to Al Fashir. 100,000 people have fled Al Fashir since it fell to the RSF on October 26th. Fear and concern about the condition of 10,000s of escapees.
Tom Fletcher@UNReliefChief

In Tawila, I spoke to women who fled El Fasher only a few weeks ago. They carry terrifying stories of brutal violence. The world has not protected them. We must do better.

#SouthSudan's President Salva Kiir dismissed his deputy, Benjamin Bol Mel, from all his positions and demoted him from the rank of general to a regular soldier, removing him from the National Security Service entirely. Sources in Juba say Kiir lost trust in Bol after he replaced the presidential guard without informing him. The move prompted Kiir to sideline Bol s allies and bring back his old security and political circle, including his security adviser Tut Gatluak.

#𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐚: 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 “𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞” 𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟖𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐬 𝐢𝐧 #𝐓𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐲 Mekelle – A new report by the “Commission of Inquiry on Tigray Genocide (CITG)” has documented what it describes as “war-induced genocidal sexual and gender-based violence” committed against hundreds of thousands of women and girls across Tigray during the two-year Tigray war. The report, released on Thursday, paints a harrowing picture of the systematic use of rape, sexual slavery, and other forms of gender-based violence as weapons of war. According to the report, out of 481,201 women and girls surveyed, 286,250 suffered at least one form of gender-based violence, while 166,621 (58.2%) reported experiencing sexual violence. It further reveals that 152,108 (53.14%) survivors were raped — 70 percent of them gang-raped by between two and fifty perpetrators. The findings indicate extreme brutality. Some 21,117 women (7.4%) were held in prolonged sexual slavery. Commissioner Yemane told Addis Standard that the findings were based on a door-to-door survey conducted using the ODK application and guided by the IASC GBV principles. “As the war-induced sexual violence was widespread throughout Tigray, universal screening was employed,” he said. Yemane noted that Thursday’s publication presents only the main findings. “We have thousands of testimonies and stories that were not included in the current report, so there will be additional work and reports focused specifically on SGBV-related issues,” he confirmed. addisstandard.com/?p=52965

Janjaweed leader Ali Kushayb found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur in 2003 and 2004 by the ICC, in a hearing whose details would sound familiar to anyone following the fighting in Darfur today.
