A recent attack by the RSF in El Fasher, Sudan, resulted in the deaths of ten civilians and injuries to twenty-three others. This escalation exemplifies the ongoing conflict in the region, which has claimed thousands of lives since its onset in April 2023.
In a tragic incident in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur State, at least ten individuals lost their lives, and twenty-three others sustained injuries due to shelling by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The attacks targeted residential neighborhoods and a shelter center, as reported by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). The SAF’s 6th Infantry Division stated that the RSF used 37 120-mm artillery shells in this assault.
The shelling resulted in the unfortunate death of ten civilians, including a three-year-old girl, while those injured, some critically, were promptly transported to medical facilities for treatment. Additionally, the RSF launched drone attacks aimed at key sites within El Fasher; however, SAF’s air defense successfully intercepted these drones.
The ongoing conflict in Sudan continues to inflict grave casualties on civilians, with the recent RSF attack in El Fasher resulting in ten deaths and numerous injuries. Since the beginning of this conflict, it has claimed over 29,000 lives and displaced millions. The conflict’s enduring nature highlights the urgent need for intervention and support for those affected by these violent confrontations.
