TL;DR Summary

Sudanese paramilitaries and allied militias have seized control of cities in the western region of Darfur, resulting in mass killings in one regional capital and a camp for displaced families. This military advance by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) marks a significant escalation in the conflict that began seven months ago. The RSF, led by Gen. Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, has been accused of multiple attacks on hospitals, mass killings, and ethnically motivated violence. The United Nations and Doctors Without Borders have raised concerns over the reported atrocities. The situation threatens to reignite the civil war that devastated Darfur two decades ago.
