Targeting unarmed civilians on ethnic grounds, it added, constitutes a “clear violation of international humanitarian law,” warning that continued violations threatened to turn “the conflict in South Kordofan into a broader ethnic conflict.” The network urged rights groups and the international community to pressure the SPLM-N to halt its attacks. It also called for unhindered humanitarian aid to those affected.

Since last October, Sudan’s South Kordofan, North Kordofan and West Kordofan states have witnessed fierce clashes between the Sudanese army on one side and the RSF and the SPLM-N on the other. Tens of thousands of people have reportedly been displaced by the violence. Sudan has remained engulfed in conflict between the army and the RSF since April 2023, which has led to the death of tens of thousands of people and the displacement of roughly 13 million others, according to UN and international estimates.
