To all revolutionaries of the world, to all libertarian socialists, to all anarchists:

Today we mourn our comrades’ martyrdom in El-Fasher killed while defending their city, their families and their own lives.

They are:

  • Faisal Adam Ali
  • Radwan Abdel Jabbea( “Kahrabe”)
  • Adam Kibir Musa
  • Abdel Ghaffar Al-Tahir (“Al-Sini”)

We also mourn the numerous young volunteers killed by the terrorist militia of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) whose only “crime” was to bring food to the people of the city.

We, members of the Anarchist Group of Sudan ask all comrades to unite against the authoritarian and destructive war. We must show the world the massacre and the mass extermination perpetrated by the militia of the Rapid Support Forces, supported by the United Arab Emirates.

These militias are conducting an ethnic cleansing and a genocide based on race, to serve imperialist interests that want to control the natural resources and the gold paying them with blood.

The world cannot just stand and do nothing.

The revolutionaries of the whole world must be aware of our sacrifices and of our struggle against the terror of the wild capitalism, against the bloody power and against the systematic ethnic cleansing.

We, in our Anarchist Group of Sudan, have lost comrades, some have been wounded, others killed; more are facing the imminent danger of the war. Our families suffer from hunger, lack of medicines and food.

We have believed in anarchism in a country where the authority is omnipresent, and we have fought to defend ourselves, to defend our ideals, and to preserve our unity.

Today we need you:

Open your arms, help us, so that we can continue to …… to the authorities and to the Janjaweed.

For the continuation of the revolution.

For it to be a poisoned blade into the heart of tyrants.

Ali Abdel Moneim

Genocide and ethnic cleansing in Sudan

Starting October 26th, 2025, a genocidal massacre with thousands of civilians being executed or murdered has been taking place in and around the city of El-Fasher, Sudan. The perpetrators are the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary militia that captured the city this past October.

The city was the last stronghold of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Sudanese Government. Since October at least 250,000 civilians, including numerous anarchists, have been killed, displaced, forced into hiding or to flee the country.

12 million people have abandoned their homes.

The atrocity of the killing, immediately following the fall of the city into the hands of the RSF, has been compared to the Rwandan genocide.

The RSF is the new name of the Janjaweed jihadist militia, much better armed and internationally supported by Arab regimes like the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Libya. In fact the RSF have been present on the ground in armed conflicts in Yemen and Libya.

Their goal is to purge the population of Sudan of the non-Arab people and to control and exploit the rich oil fields as well as the gold mines present in the country. The RSF oppose and fight the Sudanese Armed Forces.

The quasi-civil war is the latest episode of the fight that began in 2019 when the then President Omar al-Bashir was ousted from power. At the time there had been huge mass protests in the streets to which anarchists participated and contributed to organize. The army eventually mounted a coup to get rid of al-Bashir.

A second coup followed against a joint military-civilian government on October 2021. The coup was staged by general Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and by his deputy general Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo (aka Hemedti). Months later the two generals fell off due to disagreements about their respective roles in the government and the division of power and started a new struggle between their forces that continues to the present.

The RSF was founded in 2013 and originated from the Janjaweed militia, a jihadist militia, that fought brutally in the Darfur region against the rebels and were responsible for genocide and ethnic cleansing of the region’s black Africans as well as other non-Arab people. Recently it has formed a rival government, and this could lead to a new split of Sudan following the first one that took place in 2011 and that originated South Sudan.

In the interim between the two coups, when a vacuum of central power presented, a consistent group of Sudanese anarchists organized and participated in mass street demonstrations. They also organized and supported “resistance committees” to self-organize the local communities with projects of resistance, self-reliance and solidarity.

Since then the anarchists and the “resistance committees” have been targeted by heavy repression, arrests, torture and murder; several comrades have lost their lives while many others were forced into hiding or exile.
