Survivors Speak: Women's Harrowing Accounts of Rape in Sudan Conflict

Women in Sudan's war-hit Darfur region have shared horrifying stories of rape and abuse by paramilitary fighters. The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), accused of carrying out atrocities in the conflict, have been identified as the perpetrators in most cases reported to the UN. The conflict, which has taken on racial and ethnic dimensions, has forced thousands to flee and left survivors of sexual violence with little help. The RSF denies involvement and claims that impostors are responsible for the attacks.
