At least 40 people were killed in an attack by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on the Abu Shouk displaced persons camp in Sudan’s Darfur region, aid groups reported. The camp, home to around 200,000 people, was struck amid heavy fighting in nearby el-Fasher, the last major army stronghold in Darfur, according to BBC.
The conflict between the RSF and Sudanese forces has caused a severe humanitarian crisis, with millions displaced and famine declared in parts of the country. The RSF, linked to past ethnic violence, has frequently targeted camps housing non-Arab communities during the war.
