Another victim said: “I lost two of my uncles and I feel anger has been dominating our life. Families were fragmented between countries and camps. My education was affected with no hope about the future. The memory of the tragedy is still fresh in my mind and I have become careless.” 3.2 Ethnic targeting of other communities by RSF Introduction Some interviewees in this report indicated that the RSF engaged in patterns of violence that appeared to target specific ethnic groups in various areas. The attacks by RSF were particularly against people from the Nuba Mountains and Darfur. These incidents often involved killings, damaging, looting of civilian property, torture, and verbal abuse which indicated that the attacks were ethnically motivated. Understanding these dynamics is essential for analyzing the humanitarian impact and the broader implications for peace and accountability in Sudan. The accounts below are the testimonies of interviewees. Nasir, 41 years, from Nuba background, fled from Sudan to Uganda where he was then interviewed. In 2023, his home in Khartoum was attacked by RSF. “On 18th April 2023 early morning a group of armed RSF soldiers invaded my house where they were confronted by my father, and I also appeared before them. I heard them insulting my father saying: “you old man, no need for you to live anymore, you Nuba slave, we consider you as a fly” and one of them immediately shot him on his chest and he died instantly in front of my eyes. Later, I went to the market and the armed RSF soldiers in uniform (I know them because they were my neighbours) arrested me, while insulting me using words like Nubawi,53 Abid (slave), Abulda,54 falangai,55 and fulool.56 They took me to one of their facilities, tortured and inflicted more pain on me after I inquired why they were mistreating me yet they were my neighbors".57 53 This means ’Nuba individual’. Means soldier (mostly used by RSF soldiers to describe the victim as a SAF soldier) 55 Falangai is an old word used in describing a follower who carries out orders without will or understanding. 56 Followers of the former regime (Al-Bashir regime). 57 Nasir was interviewed on 28th July 2025 from Kiryandongo refugee settlement, Uganda. 54 28
