Médecins Sans Frontières has released a report documenting increasing use of sexual violence as a weapon of war in Darfur, occurring both in active combat areas and beyond conflict lines.

A UN report documents systematic use of sexual violence by Sudan's Rapid Support Forces and allied militias in Darfur as a deliberate tactic to control civilian populations during the ongoing conflict. The RSF has faced repeated accusations of widespread atrocities since the April 2023 outbreak of fighting with the Sudanese Armed Forces. Darfur remains among the most severely affected regions, with mass displacement and documented human rights abuses driving calls for accountability and humanitarian access.
Doctors Without Borders reports that Sudan's Rapid Support Forces and allied militias are employing sexual violence as a deliberate tactic to control civilian populations in Darfur.

The UN reported that over 9 million people remain internally displaced across Sudan, with approximately 3.8 million having begun returning home. However, displacement continues in Darfur, Kordofan, and Blue Nile states, indicating the humanitarian crisis remains active and geographically concentrated. The persistence of displacement in these regions suggests ongoing instability or conflict preventing broader population stabilization.
