The Washington Post published on 1 November 2025 an article titled "Families Shot Down, Held at Ransom as They Flee Darfur's Killing Fields" by Katharine Houreld and Hafiz Haroun.
The article documents the atrocities in Darfur region following the capture of El Fasher, capital of North Darfur, by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). While a few countries provide military and/or financial assistance to the combatants, the RSF or the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF), most prefer to look the other way as the atrocities continue.
