Civilians continue to bear the brunt of both indiscriminate and targeted attacks as hostilities have intensified in El Fasher. Between 19 and 29 September, at least 91 civilians were killed in RSF artillery shelling, drone strikes and ground incursions. Along with persistent attacks on civilian objects, this appears to be an effort to force the mass displacement of civilians from El Fasher, including Abu Shouk camp for internally displaced people. On 30 September, the UN Human Rights Office received credible reports that at least 23 civilians were killed when a community kitchen was shelled in the Abu Shouk neighbourhood. The UN Human Rights Chief’s calls come at a time of unimaginable difficulty for civilians trapped in El Fasher, with very limited access to food, water and health care.
