called on the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to condemn and stop the killing of Sudanese fleeing the capital of West Darfur state heading to neighbouring Chad.
Reports and videos from El-Geneina showed Arab elements insulting women and kiddies fleeing on foot to Chad and violent mostly peacefully looting their belongings.
In a statement on Saturday, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) said that interviews with Sudanese refugees who have fled El-Geneina, into Adré in Chad confirmed horrifying accounts of armed the RSF- backed militia killing people fleeing El Geneina.
"Our UN Human Rights officers have heard multiple, corroborating accounts that "Arab" militia are primarily targeting male adults from the Masalit community," said OHCHR spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani.
Shamdasani added that the interviewed reported witnessing lifeless bodies strewn along the road, accompanied by the putrid smell of decay. Numerous witnesses described encountering dozens of corpses in an area known as Shukri, approximately 10km away from the border, where it is believed that one or more Arab militias maintain a base.
"The High Commissioner for Human Rights calls on the RSF leadership to immediately, unequivocally condemn and stop the killing of people fleeing El-Geneina, and other violence and hate speech against them on the basis of their ethnicity."
