UN Investigates El-Fasher Mass Killings

UN Launches Fact-Finding Mission into El-Fasher Mass Killings; G7 Condemns Sudans Humanitarian CrisisThe United Nations has established an independent fact-finding mission to investigate reports of mass killings in el-Fasher, Sudan, following the capture of the city by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The mission comes amidst criticism from the UN human rights chief, Volker Türk, who accused the international community of inaction in Sudans civil war. The RSF, accused of targeting non-Arab groups, has denied these claims. Mona Rishmawi, a UN mission member, described the current suffering in Darfur as even worse than the genocide two decades ago, with attacks now targeting entire cities and refugee camps. The G7 nations have condemned the surging violence in Sudan, labeling it the worlds largest humanitarian crisis, while the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, hinted at certain countries involvement in supplying arms to the RSF. The United Arab Emirates, denying support for the RSF, expressed alarm at the attacks in el-Fasher and accused the Sudanese army of starvation tactics. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story.
