The war in Sudan broke out on April 15, 2023, between forces loyal to army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and those of Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, his former deputy and head of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.
At least 13 civilians were killed in an attack by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on a village in Gezira (or Jazira) state in central Sudan.
“SDF attacked the village of Al Hurqa, east of Wadi Medani, the capital of Gezira state, killing 13 civilians,” the local militia said in a statement on Facebook. Several villagers were injured and taken to hospital, he added.
The Rapid Support Force (RSF) under General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo took control of Gezira state in December 2023 after government forces withdrew from Wad Medani.
