TikTok war: RSF general arrested after atrocity shock!
The situation in Sudan is getting worse. On November 4, 2025, Brigadier General Abu Lulu, real name Al-Fateh Abdullah Idris, was arrested by his own Rapid Support Forces (RSF) fighters after posting horrifying videos on TikTok. These videos show him executing handcuffed people and bragging about killing over 2,000 people. The content documents not only murders, but also rapes, looting and forced relocations. The United Nations has confirmed the authenticity of these videos and speaks of systematic violent crimes in Sudan. The reason for Idris's arrest, announced on October 30, is "violations during the liberation of Al-Fashir", a strategically important city that recently fell into the hands of the RSF.
A picture showing the arrest shows Idris in handcuffs. However, it remains unclear whether this measure is part of an internal power play within the RSF or a serious attempt to hold those responsible to account. Observers suggest that the regular Sudanese army has officially withdrawn to protect civilians, but this is seen by many as a defeat for the army.
The brutal reality in el-Fasher
In the city of el-Fasher, the RSF shot unarmed people and carried out extreme violence during its offensive on military bases. Denise Brown, the UN coordinator for Sudan, reported “credible reports of summaries of executions.” Videos show military personnel targeting unarmed civilians. According to the UN coordinator for Sudan, over 150,000 people have died and around 12 million are displaced since the conflict began in April 2023. These tragic figures illustrate the scale of the humanitarian crisis caused by the civil war in Sudan.
The civil war began on April 15, 2023, when fighting broke out between the Sudanese army and the RSF in the capital Khartoum. The conflict has its roots in deep-rooted inequalities and ethnic tensions. The RSF, which emerged from the Janjawid, is responsible for brutal crimes against the civilian population. Between 2003 and 2006, an estimated 300,000 people were killed during the Darfur conflict.
International reactions and future perspectives
The international community is monitoring developments in Sudan with concern. Reports of ethnically motivated executions and other human rights violations are increasing. The RSF has had an appalling record of crimes since its inception in the context of the Darfur conflict. Unfortunately, this behavior continues in the current conflict.
Analysts point out that the RSF have established a parallel government in the areas under their control, which are estimated to cover a third of the national territory. Both the RSF and the regular armed forces are suspected of committing war crimes. Political instability and the bloody power struggle between General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and Mohammed Hamdan Daglo, the leader of the RSF, only appear to be exacerbating the humanitarian crisis, while civilians are suffering the consequences.
Developments in Sudan require urgent attention and action. The global community must act immediately to alleviate people's suffering and bring perpetrators to justice.
