About
The University of Alfashir is a public university in El Fasher, the capital city of the state of North Darfur, Sudan. According to a United Nations report in November 2025, when the city of El Fasher was occupied and massacred by the Rapid Support Forces, the university had been turned into "a killing ground" where thousands of civilians had been sheltering, and there were "bodies piling in the streets and trenches dug in and around the city". The university's name has been alternatively translated in English as Al Fashir University, Al Fasher University, El Fasher University, and El Fashir University.
