Sudan: At least 22 people lost their lives after an airstrike hit a city in Sudan. Health officials claimed it was one of the deadliest in weeks of fighting between rival Sudan generals. According to updates, the attack took place in a residential area of Omdurman, a city neighboring the capital Khartoum.
An unspecified number of people were injured in the attack
An unknown number of people were injured in the attack, according to the health ministry. The airstrike in an urban area of the capital is claimed to be the deadliest since clashes between the army and the powerful paramilitary group known as the Rapid Support Forces. Earlier in June this year, at least 17 people, including 5 children, were killed in an airstrike in Khartoum.
RSF has blamed the army for the attack.
The powerful paramilitary group (RSF) blamed the army for the attack on residential areas in Omdurman. The army has reportedly attempted to cut a vital supply line for the paramilitary force there.
Some residents claimed that it was difficult to determine which side was responsible for the attack. He further claimed that military aircraft have repeatedly targeted RSF troops in the area and that the paramilitary has used drones and anti-aircraft weapons against the military.
