61% : It concluded that a seven-week campaign of killings and abuses early last summer by Sudan's rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and allied Arab militias against the Massalit people and other non-Arab communities around West Darfur's capital, El Geneina, involved multiple war crimes and crimes against humanity, and amounted to ethnic cleansing.
48% : The US, UK and the EU have taken only limited action so far.
44% : What happened in El Geneina last year, when the UN says 15,000 people may have died, could happen again imminently.
42% : The city is "on the precipice of a large-scale massacre", the US ambassador to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, warned recently.
