Sudan's Genocide is Even Worse than We Thought

"If you were going to see the murder of a city, this is what it looks like." These were the words of Nathaniel Raymond, Executive Director of the Human itarian Research Lab at the Yale School of Public Health, speaking to the New York Times about the fall of Alfascha.

Once a bustling city, the capital of North Darfur was encircled and besieged by the paramilitary rapid support forces amid Sudan's chaotic civil war. For over 550 days, it held out against the RSF resisting takeover even as medical care became scarce and famine took hold.
