Sudanese medical charity accuses paramilitary RSF of burning bodies in El Fasher

Port Sudan, Sudan (PANA) - Sudanese medical charity, Sudan Doctors Network, has accused the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) of collecting hundreds of bodies from the streets and 
neighbourhoods of El Fasher, burying some in mass graves and burning others in a bid to hide its crimes in the devastated city, which it captures from the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) late last month.

The charity said in a statemet on its Facebook page on Sunday that El Fasher had witnessed one of the most inhumane acts in recent days.

“What happened in El Fasher is not an isolated incident but rather another chapter in a full-fledged genocide, carried out by the RSF, blatantly violating all international and religious norms that prohibit the mutilation of corpses and guarantee the dead the right to a dignified burial,” it said.

The Sudan Doctors Network condemned these horrific crimes in the strongest possible terms, holding the leadership of the RSF fully responsible for these massacres.

“The Network affirms that these crimes cannot be erased through concealment or burning, and calls on the international community to take immediate and urgent action to launch an independent international investigation into what is happening in El Fasher,” the statement stressed.

It highlighted that the situation in El Fasher has gone beyond a humanitarian catastrophe to become a "systematic genocide”, targeting human life and dignity amid an appalling international silence that amounts to complicity.
