Sudan's RSF says it has arrested fighters accused of abuse

November 02, 2025

SUDAN’S paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) said they had arrested several fighters accused of committing abuses during the capture of the western city of El-Fasher, as a UN official warned the “horror is continuing” in both Darfur and neighbouring Kordofan.

At war with the army since April 2023, the RSF seized El-Fasher last Sunday, dislodging the army’s last stronghold in western Darfur after an 18-month siege marked by bombardment and starvation.

It has faced widespread accusations of grave abuses after taking the city, with survivors who reached the nearby town of Tawila telling of mass killings, children shot in front of their parents, and civilians beaten and robbed as they fled. On Thursday, the RSF said it had detained several fighters accused of “violations that occurred during the liberation” of El-Fasher, including one known as Abu Lulu who appeared in multiple videos on his TikTok committing summary executions.
