The UN Human Rights Council passed a motion condemning violence in el-Obeid, Sudan, and created an inquiry into the situation. The council's head said the town has faced drone strikes, executions, torture, abductions, and sexual violence. Save the Children said more than 5,500 children have been displaced from the area.
Background on the Conflict The three-year war between government forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has killed hundreds of thousands of people and driven more than 14 million from their homes. Both sides have denied committing war crimes. Amnesty International reported last week that the Rapid Support Forces carried out ethnic cleansing and other acts in el-Fasher.
