The fall of El-Fasher to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) marks a turning point in the Sudanese conflict, with General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan acknowledging his army's defeat. After 18 months of siege, al-Fasher was the last city in Darfur not under RSF control. The UN has raised alarms over reports of atrocities and revenge attacks on civilians, fearing further violence as the RSF consolidates its power. Activists and international bodies are calling for urgent action to protect civilians in the region, as Naba Mohiedeen explains from Port Sudan.
