Sudan conflict: Thousands flee fresh ethnic killings in Darfur

 Thousands of people have been forced to flee the Sudanese region of West Dafur amid fears of ethnic cleansing, a medical charity says. 

Witnesses have accused the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces (RSF) of targeting and killing non-Arabs, with reports of hundreds of deaths.

This comes after the RSF captured the Sudanese army headquarters in West Darfur capital of El Geneina. 

The RSF says it is not involved in what it describes as a "tribal conflict".

It has been battling the army for control of the country since April.
