Doctors Without Borders just pulled out of a hospital in Darfur after RSF troops straight up executed one of their workers outside the facility and wounded four others. The group is refusing to send people back until the paramilitary goons promise they can actually do their jobs without getting shot.
This is the second time the hospital got shut down this year. Back in August, someone lobbed a grenade inside the building and killed a person, which made everyone bounce for a couple of weeks. The timing is absolutely terrible because there's a massive measles outbreak ripping through malnourished kids, with weekly cases jumping from three patients to over 60.
The aid org is still supplying medicine and personnel support while trying to negotiate safety guarantees with local authorities and security forces, but operations are frozen until they get real protection.
