The ongoing conflict in Sudan has led to widespread humanitarian crises and allegations of war crimes by both the Sudanese armed forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.

A military air strike on a mosque in Wad Madani, Sudan, on Sunday killed 31 people, according to a committee of local activists. The attack occurred after evening prayers in the Al-Jazira state, just south of Khartoum. The Wad Madani Resistance Committee accused the army of using "barrel bombs," and noted that over half of the deceased remain unidentified as rescuers search through the remains of charred and mutilated bodies.

Since April 2023, conflict has persisted between the Sudanese armed forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), leading to tens of thousands of deaths and creating the world's largest displacement and humanitarian crisis. Both factions are engaged in intense combat for control of central Sudan's agricultural Al-Jazira state, which has been under RSF control since late last year.

Accusations against both sides include war crimes, such as targeting civilians and blocking aid. The RSF has faced specific allegations of looting, besieging villages, and committing acts of sexual violence across the region.
