Thousands Missing, New Horrors Emerge After RSF Capture of El Fasher in Sudan
By Ababil Islamic News — Updated: November 2, 2025
In the aftermath of the capture of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), reports are emerging of wide-scale atrocities, mass disappearances, and ethnic-based violence. Witnesses and aid agencies say that civilians are being hunted down, humiliated, and killed, while thousands remain missing and communications are cut off in large parts of the city.
๐ What the Evidence Shows
According to multiple sources, RSF fighters entered El Fasher after an 18-month siege and launched door-to-door searches, separating men, women, and children by gender and ethnic background. Estimates suggest that more than 1,500 civilians may have been killed within days. Medical charity Mรฉdecins Sans Frontiรจres (MSF) reports that many displaced families are suffering from acute malnutrition, with children under five forming a large share of the victims.

๐ Humanitarian Crisis and Urgent Alarms
The city was home to about 260,000 people before the assault. Since the takeover, aid agencies estimate that tens of thousands have fled while many remain trapped with no safe exit. The condition of water, food, medical supplies, and shelter is described as “apocalyptic.” Humanitarian organizations warn that without immediate access, the death toll will continue to rise sharply.
๐ Impact on the Muslim World & Relief Response
The scale of violence in Darfur has drawn urgent concern from across the global Muslim community. Islamic relief organizations have called for unrestricted access to deliver aid and protect civilians. The targeting of minority ethnic groups, combined with mass killings and displacement, has raised fears of genocide — an issue that deeply resonates with the Islamic world’s moral and humanitarian responsibilities.

๐ Key Facts to Watch
- Will the RSF allow humanitarian organizations access to El Fasher?
- Will Muslim-majority countries push for an international investigation into reported war crimes?
Will peace talks resume between Sudan’s warring factions before more cities fall?- Will the humanitarian corridor proposed by the UN be accepted?
✅ Conclusion
The tragedy unfolding in Sudan is not a local issue—it is a test for the global conscience and the unity of the Ummah. As thousands remain unaccounted for in El Fasher, the call for justice, mercy, and humanitarian action becomes louder. The world, and especially the Islamic world, must not stay silent in the face of such suffering.
