"Dozens of people were killed after Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) struck a mosque at a displaced persons' camp in Darfur, medical and aid workers said Friday. The Emergency Response Room, a local volunteer group which helps coordinate relief at the Abu Shouk camp outside El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, said 75 people had been killed in the drone strike."
"The war in Sudan, now in its third year, has intensified with civilian deaths, executions, and ethnic violence increasing since the beginning of this year, according to a UN report released Friday. "Sudan's conflict is a forgotten one, and I hope that my office's report puts the spotlight on this disastrous situation where atrocity crimes, including war crimes, are being committed," UN human rights chief Volker Turk said in a statement."
Dozens were killed after Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) struck a mosque at the Abu Shouk displaced persons camp outside El-Fasher in North Darfur. Local volunteer group Emergency Response Room reported 75 fatalities from the drone strike, while the Sudan Doctors Network reported 43 worshipper deaths and condemned the attack as a violation of international humanitarian law. The RSF seeks to push the Sudanese army further out of El-Fasher. The conflict has intensified into its third year with rising civilian deaths, executions, ethnic violence, sexual violence, indiscriminate attacks, and retaliatory violence targeting alleged collaborators, producing a severe humanitarian crisis.
