Sudan's el-Obeid faces imminent RSF assault as 83,000 displaced civilians trapped

Thousands of civilians face imminent threat of mass atrocities; over 83,000 already displaced with deteriorating conditions including food shortages and infrastructure destruction.

In the Sudanese city of el-Obeid, more than 83,000 people who fled one catastrophe now find themselves at the edge of another. The Rapid Support Forces, a paramilitary faction whose commanders have publicly vowed to attack, are closing in on a city that has become both sanctuary and potential killing ground. The international community, still reckoning with its failure to prevent the massacres in el-Fasher last October, is raising urgent alarms — yet the distance between warning and prevention has never felt wider.
