Amnesty International is calling for a war crimes investigation into an April 2025 attack by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on the Zamzam refugee camp in North Darfur, Sudan. The NGO released a report documenting atrocities committed during the assault, including indiscriminate killings and mass rape. Witnesses reported RSF fighters using explosives in populated areas and randomly shooting civilians, resulting in at least 47 deaths. The Zamzam camp, the largest for internally displaced people in North Darfur, was attacked as the RSF laid siege to the state capital, el-Fasher. Amnesty International condemned the RSF's disregard for human life and called for justice for the victims.
