Violence in Sudan's el-Fasher has escalated dramatically, with fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) intensifying. At least a million civilians are trapped in dire conditions as the RSF and allied Arab militias target non-Arab groups. Humanitarian organizations are calling for international intervention to prevent further atrocities. The RSF has announced their willingness to open 'safe passages' out of the city, which has been gripped by conflict for weeks. The situation has led to the destruction of hospitals and significant casualties, prompting urgent calls for a civilian protection mission. Described as 'Hell on Earth,' Darfur faces a situation akin to Srebrenica, with catastrophe looming.
