(Forelines) – On Saturday at least 54 people were died and 158 injured in a attack by Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on a market in the city of Omdurman, according to the statement by health ministry.
In a statement the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) refused targeting the market and instead alleged the Sudanese army of carrying out strikes targeting civilians.
The army and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) both have struck densely packed areas in a battle that burst out in April 2023 over the integration of two forces.
The dispute has killed ten thousands people, moved millions from their homes and dropped half of the population into hunger.
