UK Sanctions RSF Commanders for War Crimes
Update: 2025-12-13
Description
The United Kingdom has imposed sanctions on four high-ranking Rapid Support Forces (RSF) commanders, including Abdul Rahim Hamdan Dagalo, for alleged human rights abuses in Sudan. These abuses include mass killings, ethnically targeted executions, and sexual violence, such as gang rape. The sanctions, announced on December twelfth, target individuals responsible for documented atrocities committed by RSF troops in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur. The RSF captured El Fasher in October, following an eighteen-month siege against the Sudanese Armed Forces, resulting in widespread civilian casualties. New findings from satellite imagery and survivor testimonies reveal grave breaches of international humanitarian law, including mass killings, ethnically targeted executions, sexual violence, abductions, arbitrary detentions, and attacks on medical facilities.
