Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Sudan's Minister of State for Social Welfare, Salimi Ishaq, revealed that the rapid support forces killed 300 women in the first two days of their entry into the city of Al-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state in western Sudan.
He stressed that these women were victims of sexual rape, torture and violence.
Anadolu Agency quoted Ishaq as saying: "Anyone who moves from Al-Fasher to the Tawila area in North Darfur is at risk, because the Al-Fasher-Tawila road has become a deadly road."
He added that there are families still left in Al-Fasher and are being subjected to torture, humiliation and sexual violence. According to him, “what happened in El Fasher is an organized ethnic cleansing and a major crime that everyone is complicit in with their silence.”
Doctors Without Borders has also warned that thousands of civilians in El Fasher have been prevented from leaving and their lives are in danger. The organization has reported a “massacre” in the city and called for urgent action by the international community to stop the “bloodbath.”
The organization also announced that its forces in the Tawi region are ready to receive a large wave of displaced and wounded people after the city of El Fasher fell to the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
On Saturday, the Sudanese government submitted a report to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and several international bodies in Geneva on “crimes and gross human rights violations” committed by these forces.
On October 26, the Rapid Support Forces took control of the city of El Fasher and, according to local and international organizations, carried out massacres against civilians. These developments have raised concerns about the “geographical division of the country.”
Since April 2023, Sudan has been embroiled in a bloody war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces, which has killed tens of thousands of people and displaced an estimated 13 million. The Rapid Support Forces currently control five western Darfur states, while the army controls most of the country (13 other states) in the south, north, east and center, including the capital, Khartoum.
Since October 26, 2025, more than 2,500 civilians (including about 460 in the Al-Saud maternity hospital) have been executed or killed in the city of El Fasher, Sudan, according to news sources. The executions were carried out mainly by the Rapid Reaction Forces after they captured the city, which was the last stronghold of the Sudanese armed forces in Darfur.
He stressed that these women were victims of sexual rape, torture and violence.
