Paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have killed 10 civilians since Thursday in Al-Nuhud, the second-largest city in West Kordofan state, a local relief group said on Saturday.

The Dar Hamar Emergency Committee said security had deteriorated across the city as RSF members riding motorcycles carried out attacks in several neighbourhoods.

“RSF members killed 10 unarmed civilians in different neighbourhoods of the city since Thursday,” the committee said in a statement. It reported a complete communications blackout, including the loss of Starlink service, and said RSF members continued to loot shops, raid homes and intimidate residents.

There was no immediate comment from the RSF, which has controlled Al-Nuhud, the main city in the Dar Hamar area, since May 2025.

The report came a day after Sudanese officials said the army and allied forces took control of Al-Khuway, about 100 kilometres (62 miles) from Al-Nuhud, following clashes with the RSF.

On November 7, the army took control of Ayal Bakhit, northwest of Al-Khuway, after fighting with the paramilitary group, military sources told Anadolu.

Fighting between the army and the RSF has intensified across North, West and South Kordofan since October 25 last year.

The war, which broke out in April 2023, has killed tens of thousands of people and forced nearly 13 million to flee their homes, according to UN estimates.
