30 killed in Sudan drone attack 

At least 30 people were killed and dozens were injured in a drone attack on one of the last functioning hospitals in El-Fasher in Sudan’s Darfur region on Saturday.

It was not immediately clear which of Sudan’s warring sides had launched the attack.

Since April 2023, the Sudanese army has been at war with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, who have seized nearly the entire vast western region of Darfur.

They have besieged El-Fasher, the state capital of North Darfur, since May, but have not managed to claim the city, where army-aligned militias have repeatedly pushed them back.

According to the medical source, the same building had been hit by an RSF drone "a few weeks ago.”

The war has so far killed tens of thousands, uprooted more than 12 million and brought millions to the brink of mass starvation.
