Over 100 women in Al Jazirah state in Sundan have reportedly committed mass suicide to evade the threat of sexual violence perpetrated by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
More than 500 men are killed in a single village, the women are resorting to s*icide to protect themselves.

The RSF has been accused of widespread sexual violence, including rape and gang rape, used as a weapon of war.
Human Rights Watch has documented horrific cases of sexual violence, forced marriage, and sexual slavery in Khartoum and neighboring cities.
The situation in Al Jazirah is particularly dire. Local activists report that entire villages have been targeted, with men killed and women subjected to horrific sexual violence. The lack of reliable communication and internet access has made it difficult to fully assess the extent of the atrocities.
