33 killed in suspected RSF attacks in Sudan

Khartoum [Sudan], May 11: At least 33 people have been killed in Sudan in attacks suspected to have been carried out by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) as the brutal two-year war claims its latest victims.
An RSF strike on a prison on Saturday in el-Obeid killed at least 19 people, while on Friday evening, at least 14 members of the same family were killed in an air attack in Darfur, local sources said. The attacks - part of the RSF's ongoing war with the military-led government's Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) since 2023 - came after six straight days of the paramilitary group's drone attacks on the army-led government's wartime capital of Port Sudan.
These attacks damaged key infrastructure, including a power grid and the country's last operational civilian airport, which was a key gateway for aid into the war-ravaged nation.
The war has left tens of thousands dead, displaced 13 million people and triggered what the United Nations calls the world's worst humanitarian crisis. The attack on the prison on Saturday also wounded 45 people, a medical source told the AFP news agency. The source said the jail in the army-controlled city in the North Kordofan state capital was hit by an RSF drone. The night before, 14 people were killed at the Abu Shouk displacement camp near el-Fasher in Darfur, a rescue group said, blaming the paramilitary. (Agencies)
