Sudan's military is accusing the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces of killing at least 2,000 people since seizing control of El Fasher in the Darfur region, including some 460 at the Saudi Maternity Hospital. Meanwhile, tens of thousands have fled.

"What's happening is no less than a … campaign of destruction and annihilation," says Mathilde Vu, Sudan advocacy manager at the Norwegian Refugee Council, speaking to _Democracy Now!_ from Kenya.

What's unfolding in El Fasher is "the sum of all our fears," adds Nathaniel Raymond, executive director of the Humanitarian Research Lab at the Yale School of Public Health. He urges the United States to put pressure on the United Arab Emirates, which has backed the RSF in the civil war as the group carries out "acts that are tantamount to genocide."
