PORT SUDAN — Three civilians have been killed and 20 wounded in a drone attack by paramilitaries in the western Sudanese town of El-Fasher in North Darfur, activists said on Sunday.
The local resistance committee, one of hundreds of volunteer groups coordinating aid across Sudan, said in a statement the attack took place on Saturday night.
It said the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which have been battling the regular army since mid-April 2023, targeted “Awlad Al-Reef neighborhood in the center of the city with four high-explosive missiles, killing three civilians and injuring more than 20 others with serious wounds.”
El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, has been under paramilitary siege since May.
The city has seen fierce clashes as both sides fight to secure a last foothold in the Darfur region.
