Rapid Support Forces violations in Sudan during the capture of the city of El Fasher amount to war crimes and possible crimes against humanity, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights says.

RSF committed “widespread atrocities that amount to war crimes and possible crimes against humanity,” says a report published by the OHCHR.
