At least 31 people, including children, have been executed by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Khartoum’s twin city of Omdurman, according to the Sudan Doctors Network.
Minors were among the victims in Al-Salha area in the city, the group said, calling the killings “the largest documented mass killing in the region”.
The victims were accused by the paramilitary group of affiliation with the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), local medics said.
Activists shared videos on social media showing individuals in RSF uniforms shooting at a group of people in the Al-Salha neighbourhood.
The doctor’s network also called the bloodshed by the RSF a “war crime and a crime against humanity”.
It appealed to the international community to take urgent action to rescue the remaining civilians by opening safe routes to ensure their exit from Al-Salha.
There was no immediate comment from the rebel group on the report.
