In mid-April, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched a brutal attack on Zamzam Camp in North Darfur, killing hundreds and displacing many more. The camp, which has been a refuge for those displaced by the longstanding conflict since the 2000s, now faces dire humanitarian issues due to continued violence, aid blockades, and famine. Despite some military efforts to protect the camp, it has been left exposed, as violence surges amid an ongoing civil conflict between the RSF and the Sudanese military since April 2023.
"One dawn in mid-April, the air in Zamzam Camp seemed to shatter as the Rapid Support Forces stormed the displacement camp, launching a brutal three-day assault that killed hundreds."
"Zamzam has transformed from a refuge for civilians displaced by the Darfur conflict into a killing field, with aid blockades and repeated RSF attacks stripping the camp of food and safety."
