Statement: Darfur Regional Government

In a horrifying incident that shocks the conscience of humanity, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia committed a brutal massacre against unarmed civilians in the villages and areas of: [Bir Mazza, Braidik, Donki Ba’ashim, Dreishqi, Hilla Abu Zakaria, Hilla Abu Musa, Hilla Haroun, Hilla Amouh, Hilla Adam Hamdoun, Hilla Abu Juma’a, Hilla Mohamed Aboti, Hilla Klimit, Hilla Qusoub, Hilla Adbo, Hilla Ishaq Taher, Hilla Idris Dago, Hilla Siddig Bara, Hilla Abdullah Abkar] in North Darfur State. This crime resulted in the death of a large number of innocent civilians and the displacement of more than 13,000 unarmed citizens, adding this atrocity to the series of crimes committed by this rebellious militia across various states of Sudan. These criminal acts demonstrate the systematic behavior of these militias in targeting civilians, looting their properties, and forcibly displacing them from their areas.

The Darfur Regional Government, referring to this documented crime, calls upon the international community and human rights organizations to condemn and denounce these crimes and hold the perpetrators from the RSF militia accountable, in line with the principle of no impunity.

The Darfur Regional Government extends its condolences to the souls of the martyrs, asking Almighty God to accept them in His mercy and grant patience and comfort to their families. It also urges civil society organizations and the National Initiative to rescue the innocent civilians in the affected areas.
