Hundreds Killed in Sudan after El Fasher Captured by RSF Militia
- This past week the WHO said nearly 500 civilians, including patients and companions, were shot dead at the last partially functioning hospital in el-Fasher as the Rapid Support Forces seized control of the city.

- UN and investigative reports found British-made equipment in RSF hands Tuesday, while investigations indicate up to 90% of Sudan's gold flows to the United Arab Emirates.
