The Darfur genocide began in 2003 due to a complex mix of ethnic tensions, competition for resources, and political grievances. The Sudanese government, led by President Omar al-Bashir, sought to suppress a rebellion by predominantly non-Arab groups, leading to the mobilization of Arab militias known as the Janjaweed. This resulted in widespread violence, targeting non-Arab populations, and a humanitarian crisis marked by mass killings, displacements, and atrocities. The underlying issues included long-standing marginalization and neglect of the Darfur region by the central government.
