News summary

At least 22 people were killed and numerous others injured in a recent artillery shelling by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Al-Fashir, North Darfur, marking the deadliest incident in weeks amidst ongoing conflict in Sudan. The RSF reportedly targeted markets, hospitals, and residential areas, utilizing drones and heavy artillery, as confirmed by the al-Fashir Resistance Committees. This attack comes as the city remains the last stronghold of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in the Darfur region, which has seen significant violence since the civil war began in April 2023. Over 300,000 individuals have been displaced from Al-Fashir due to the conflict, which has led to a severe humanitarian crisis affecting millions. The RSF has not commented on the attacks but has previously denied targeting civilians. The fighting has resulted in an estimated 16,650 deaths and left Sudan on the brink of famine, with accusations of war crimes against both conflicting parties.
