Killings and attacks on communities in Darfur by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and allied militias have been reported “in clear violation” of a fragile ceasefire in Sudan, civil society groups said.
At least four civil society groups and activists have reported attacks which took place over the weekend in North Darfur. The timings spill into Sunday – the first day of a 72-hour ceasefire announced by the two main warring parties, the RSF and the Sudanese Armed Forces . A North Darfur civil society group and the Darfur Victims Solidarity Association said late Monday, the RSF seized an SAF garrison in North Darfur’s Tawila locality in the morning, killing a number of armed forces soldiers.
The United Nations Mission in Sudan condemned the killings, saying in a statement: “Compelling eyewitness accounts attribute this act to Arab militias and the Rapid Support Forces , even though the RSF communicated a denial of their involvement to the mission.” RSF General Abdel-Rahman Gumma on Monday repeated the paramilitary group’s denial of responsibility for the governor’s killing, blaming “outlaws.
