Sudanese Paramilitary Massacres Over 200

Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (rsf) injured, kidnapped, looted and killed hundreds of civilians in a three-day assault on al-Kadaris and al-Khelwat, the Emergency Lawyers network reported Tuesday.

These villages are about 60 miles south of Khartoum, the capital of Sudan.

Savagery: The rsf funds recruitment by letting soldiers loot the cities they take. According to reports, soldiers shot at villagers attempting to escape across the Nile River and raped dozens of women.

Sudan’s opposing government said 433 were killed, including children. However, it’s impossible to know how many were killed in their homes, so we don’t know exactly how many died.

Full picture: The rsf is losing its war. Losing the region south of Khartoum could be catastrophic, so it is lashing out, desperate to hold its ground.

Sudan’s civil war has left its people with two terrible choices for a future government. The rsf disdains human life, but its opponent isn’t much better.

Why suffering? Many wonder, if a loving God exists, how could He allow such atrocities. The Bible answers that question.

The Bible prophesies that wars like Sudan’s will become more common and violent, but it also shows great hope beyond these atrocities. Today’s savagery will be superseded by the most beautiful future imaginable.
