The Khartoum massacre occurred on 3 June 2019, when the armed forces of the Sudanese Transitional Military Council, headed by the Lieutenant-General Abdel Fattah Abdelrahman Burhan of the Sudan Armed Forces and his deputy, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the immediate successor organisation to the Janjaweed militia,[6] used heavy gunfire and tear gas to disperse a sit-in by protestors in Khartoum, killing over 100 people,[7] with difficulties in estimating the actual numbers.[8][9][10] At least forty of the bodies had been thrown in the River Nile.[11] Hundreds of unarmed civilians were injured, hundreds of unarmed citizens were arrested, many families were terrorised in their home estates across Sudan,[12][8] and the RSF raped more than 70 women and men.[3][4] The Internet was almost completely blocked in Sudan in the days following the massacre, making it difficult to estimate the number of victims.[13][14]

In October 2019, during the 39-month planned transition to democracy, an official Khartoum massacre investigation commission was created as required under Article 7. (16) of the Sudanese August 2019 Draft Constitutional Declaration,[15][16] under the authority of transition period Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok.[17] The commission is led by human rights lawyer Nabil Adib or Nabil Adib Abdalla and with no female members, to the objection of the No to Oppression against Women Initiative.[18]
