Stop the killing and rapes in Darfur #3

On Saturday 14 May 2022, a protest was held opposite 10 Downing Street by the Masalit (also Massalit/Massaleit) community against genocidal atrocities committed against them in Darfur, Sudan, including the murder between the 22 and 24 April of at least 168 people and the burning of hundreds of houses and shops. Some protesters also expressed their anger at the lack of action by the UK and other Western governments.

Human rights NGOs claim that those murdered were victims of attacks by the Janjaweed militia which have been integrated into Sudan's paramilitary 'Rapid Support Forces' (RSF) commanded by Lieutenant General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.

Since 2003, the Masalit, a non-Arab ethnic group of some 350,000 living in Darfur, have been the victims of repeated crimes against humanity, including killings, lootings, burnings, torture and rapes at the hands of the Janjaweed, who have been backed by Sudan's central government and the RSF. The RSF have also earned an ugly reputation for their brutal assaults on demonstrators calling for civilian rule in Khartoum and across the country.

The Sudanese government, currently headed by acting prime minister Osman Hussein, remains in the pockets of the military council (now renamed 'Sovereignty Council') and Lieutenant General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo , heavily backed by Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, and is committed to implementing severe cutbacks to obtain new loans from the IMF. These continue, despite a recent surge in prices, which has seen the cost of a loaf of bread nearly double from 30 to 50 Sudanese pounds.
