Sudan‘s RSF massacres 433 people as it forms parallel ‘peace government’

The latest massacre comes as senior RSF leaders and allied figures arrived in the Kenyan capital to set the wheels in motion for the formation of a parallel government in areas the paramilitary group controls.

Abdul Rahim Hamdan Dagalo, the deputy commander of the RSF and brother of its leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (commonly known as Hemeti), arrived in Nairobi on Tuesday for the two-day conference.

A political charter “for the government of peace and unity”, as it’s being dubbed, is set to be signed on Wednesday.
