Almost a year after the massacre in Sudanese El Fasher, hunger and violence still persist

El Fasher, once home to over a million residents, is now severely affected by conflict and humanitarian crises after falling to the RSF in October 2025. Amnesty International reports a drastic population decline to under 70,000, with rampant hunger and malnutrition among children. War crimes, including mass executions and torture, have been documented, particularly targeting ethnic minorities. Humanitarian aid is severely restricted, exacerbating food shortages, with the UN warning of famine. The UAE's support for the RSF through arms and mercenaries is highlighted, while the death toll in Sudan remains uncertain, with millions displaced.
