It is one of the deadliest air strikes involving civilians in the Sudanese capital, which has been wracked by war for nearly five months.
At least 40 people were killed today and dozens injured in an aerial bombardment targeting an outdoor market in southern Khartoum.
It was one of the deadliest airstrikes involving civilians in the Sudanese capital, which has been wracked by war for nearly five months and where fighting is intensifying in residential areas.
From April 15, the power struggle between the army led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the Rapid Support Forces (FSR) led by General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, has left behind 7,500 dead and nearly five million displaced and refugees.
The actual tally is actually much higher because many areas of the country are completely cut off from the worldmainly Darfur, in the west bordering Chad, both camps refuse to disclose their casualties.
Today’s shelling by the army, the only one with fighter jets in this conflict, began early in the morning in the market of the Kouro district, south of Khartoum.
The district’s resistance committee, one of the pro-democratic groups that have organized mutual aid among residents since the beginning of the war, denounced a “massacre.”
