Air strike in Sudan's Khartoum kills at least 20 civilians, say local activists
- An army air strike in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum has killed at least 20 people, including two children. The victims have been buried in the rubble, and the real death toll is likely much higher. The conflict between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has been ongoing since April, with hundreds killed and millions displaced.
- Clashes have spread beyond the capital to the western Darfur region, resulting in an outbreak of ethnic violence. The RSF and allied Arab militias have burned down at least 27 localities. Both the army and RSF have been accused of committing war crimes and abuses.
- More than half of Sudan's population now requires humanitarian aid, with six million at risk of famine. The violence has internally displaced around 3.8 million people, and another million have crossed borders into neighboring countries. Resistance committees provide relief and document atrocities amid the ongoing violence.
