## Resource

A Sudanese court has delivered a historic verdict, sentencing RSF leader Hemedti to death for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide in West Darfur — including the murder of the governor and attacks on civilians, schools, and homes. Fifteen top RSF figures received identical sentences, with assets seized. Though the RSF denies wrongdoing, this is the first time its leadership faces judicial consequences since the 2023 civil war erupted — a conflict that’s killed over 150,000 and displaced 12 million, with millions teetering on famine. International bodies, including the ICC, are mounting evidence linking RSF leaders to ethnic massacres against the Masalit.
