The UN Security Council has demanded that Sudanese paramilitary forces call off their eight-week siege of el-Fasher, where fighting has sparked fears of a possible genocide.
Sudan’s army has been fighting the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for more than a year, in a civil war that has killed thousands and forced millions from their homes.
El-Fasher is the last major urban centre in Darfur that remains in the hands of Sudan’s army.
The security council has called for "an immediate halt to the fighting" and withdrawal of all troops from the city.
