Sudan: UN denounces massacre in refugee camp

Khartoum, Dec 19 (Prensa Latina) The United Nations (UN) condemned that Sudanese paramilitaries killed nearly 1,000 people during a three-day attack on the Zamzam refugee camp in April, local media reported.

The details were revealed in a report published by the international body, which details the actions of the so-called Rapid Support Forces (RSF) against the Zamzam camp in the Darfur region.

The sources stated that the RSF attacked the camp as part of their siege of the city of El Fasher, the provincial capital of North Darfur state.

Zamzam is considered the largest camp for internally displaced people in Sudan, having sheltered some 500,000 people before the April attacks.

Since mid-April 2023, Sudan has been embroiled in an internal war, following a power struggle between Army Chief, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the RSF leader, General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.
