Big report in the @theguardian.com on #ElFasher #Darfur #Sudan and #civilians being left without international protection. Damning. #UK #US
www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

On 19th February, #UN investigators concluded the attack carried “hallmarks of genocide”.

Responding, UK’s foreign secretary, #YvetteCooper, avoided using the word #genocide Already #ElFasher is a footnote.

#Atrocities that once, would have stunned the world; forgotten, although not by everyone.

"Within #ElFasher, hopes faded. #RSF house-to-house clearance operations were launched throughout #DarajaOula. Most remaining occupants were #women. A witness reported women hanged from trees. Others were roped to vehicles and dragged to their deaths."
