Sudan Crisis: US Confirms War Crimes, Atrocities, and Ethnic Cleansing

The United States Department of State has determined that members of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have committed war crimes, while members of the RSF and allied militias have committed crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing. The conflict in Sudan has caused immense suffering, with civilians being targeted and abused. The SAF and RSF are urged to comply with international law, hold those responsible for atrocities accountable, and allow unhindered humanitarian assistance. The determination aims to bring renewed urgency to efforts to end the violence and achieve justice for victims.
