The U.N.’s top human rights body is holding a one-day special session to highlight hundreds of killings at a hospital in Sudan’s Darfur region and other atrocities committed last month by paramilitary forces fighting the army. The Human Rights Council is also debating a call for an urgent inquiry into the killings and other rights violations in the city of el-Fasher by the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary. Last month, the RSF seized el-Fasher and rampaged through the Saudi Hospital in the city, killing more than 450 people, the U.N. says.
