At least 80 people were killed in an attack by paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on a village in Sinnar state, central Sudan, a volunteer group said on August 16.
The volunteer group Sinnar Youth Association announced that on August 15, RSF launched a bloody attack on the village of Jalqni in the Abu Hujar area of Sinnar state, after a five-day siege that left at least 80 people dead.
“The attack occurred after the RSF attempted to kidnap the village girls, but the residents resisted, leading to this massacre,” the statement said. The RSF responded to the residents’ resistance by opening fire indiscriminately and storming their homes, the statement added.
RSF has yet to comment on this incident.
Since June, the RSF has controlled much of Sinnar state, including the state capital Singa, while the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) control the eastern Sinnar region.
Fighting in Sinnar state has displaced more than 725,000 people, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
The deadly conflict between the SAF and RSF has killed at least 16,650 people since April 15, 2023. According to recent UN data, an estimated 10.7 million Sudanese are now internally displaced, with an estimated 2.2 million seeking refuge in neighboring countries.
