Report Details New Atrocities in Darfur by Sudanese ForceIn Darfur there are killings and mass rapes occurring. In 2000, Darfur had become known for "systematic killings, rape, forced relocations and other crimes committed against mainly non-Arab tribes by government forces and their nomadic militia allies, known as the janjaweed" (Sudanese Force). And since 2003, 300,000 people have been killed. This is considered to be a modern-day genocide.
"Daniel Bekele, Human Rights Watch’s executive director for Africa, said the report documented how the Rapid Support Forces, in two campaigns since February 2014, had “killed, raped and tortured civilians in scores of villages in an organized, deliberate and systematic way.”
