US condemns RSF atrocities in North Darfur, civilians at risk

The US State Department has released a statement condemning the RSF actions in El Fasher, also referring to a massacre in West Darfur's capital, Geneina, in 2023. It said: "The United States condemns the reported mass atrocities committed by the Rapid Support Forces in El Fasher, North Darfur." The US is gravely concerned about the safety of civilians within the city and those fleeing to neighbouring areas. The RSF must stop engaging in retribution and ethnic violence; the tragedy in El Geneina must not be repeated. The US will continue working with partners to find a peaceful path forward. There isn't a viable military solution, and external military support only prolongs the conflict.
