Feb 26 (Reuters) – Violence by Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group in the Sudanese city of al-Fashir bears “the hallmarks of genocide”, the foreign ministers of the Sudan core group at the UN Human Rights’ Council said in a statement on Thursday.
The group concludes that RSF-led violence constitutes war crimes and crimes against humanity, and bears the hallmarks of genocide, the ministers said in a statement circulated by the German foreign ministry.
The countries – Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, and the United Kingdom – said they planned to form a coalition to prevent further atrocities in Sudan.
