CAIRO, Egypt
Around 70 people were killed in an attack on a hospital in Sudan's city of El Fasher, the World Health Organization reported on Sunday.
The attack targeted the Saudi
Teaching Maternal Hospital, which local officials blame on the rebel group, the
Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
This incident comes as the
civil war in Sudan intensifies, with the RSF suffering apparent losses to
Sudanese military forces. On Saturday, army chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan
appeared near a burning oil refinery north of Khartoum, which his forces claimed
to have seized from the RSF.
Saudi Arabia condemned the
attack, calling it a violation of international law.
Meanwhile, neighboring South
Sudan has suspended access to social media platforms for at least 30 days due
to the circulation of videos showing alleged killings of South Sudanese
nationals in Sudan.
This decision aims to prevent
further violence and unrest within South Sudan.
