U.N.-backed investigators say Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces have carried out a campaign in el-Fasher that shows hallmarks of genocide against non-Arab communities. The fact-finding mission says the group inflicted mass killings and starvation-like siege conditions that targeted the Zaghawa and Fur people.
