The Darfur genocide is an ongoing genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan since 2003, primarily targeting non-Arab African ethnic groups (mainly Fur, Masalit, and Zaghawa) by the Arab-dominated Government of Sudan (GoS) and allied Janjaweed militias.[1] The International Criminal Court (ICC) has charged former president Omar al-Bashir and others with genocide, citing intent to destroy non-Arab groups in part.[2]


As it was rightfully noted:

“ Much like Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood’s Sudanese Armed Forces (backed by countries like Turkey and Iran) enjoy producing gleeful videos of their wanton killing sprees.

On the other side of the war is the Rapid Support Forces, who are not much better.

Not long ago they teamed up with SAF to ethnically cleanse the Sudanese population of non-Arabs.[3]

”


Background and Arab racist ideology

The conflict began in 2003 when non-Arab rebel groups attacked government forces, protesting economic and political marginalization. The GoS responded by arming Arab Janjaweed militias, who framed the campaign in explicitly racial terms, using slurs like abid ("slaves") and nuba against Black Africans.[4] Janjaweed leaders declared intent to "cleanse" Darfur of non-Arabs and "change its demography" to favor Arab settlers.[5] Sudanese state propaganda promoted Arab supremacism, rooted in decades of Arabization policies that privileged Arab identity in land rights and citizenship.[6]

Atrocities

  • Massacres: Non-Arab villages systematically burned; survivors killed based on ethnic identity.[4]
  • Rape as a weapon: Systematic sexual violence against non-Arab women, justified by perpetrators as "spoils for Arabs".[7]
  • Forced Arabization: Displaced non-Arabs prevented from returning; land redistributed to Arab settlers.

Continuation (2023–present)

Despite a 2020 Juba Peace Agreement and al-Bashir's 2019 ouster, violence resumed in 2023 between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the Janjaweed's successor. RSF attacks in West Darfur (2023–2025) killed thousands of Masalit civilians in what the U.S. labeled a "second genocide" driven by the same Arab racist ideology.[8]
