GENEVA, June 23 (AFP): The risk of genocide in Sudan's devastating civil war remains "very high", amid ongoing ethnically motivated attacks by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, a top UN official warned Monday.
Since April 2023, Sudan has been torn apart by a power struggle between army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.
The fighting has killed tens of thousands and displaced 13 million, including four million who fled abroad, triggering what the United Nations has called the world's worst humanitarian crisis.
"Both parties have committed serious human rights violations," said Virginia Gamba, a UN under secretary-general and acting special advisor to UN chief Guterres.
