US EditionDrone strike kills 2 children at mosque in Sudan's Kordofan
The strike by Rapid Support Forces killed two Quran-studying children and injured 13, part of over 90 civilian deaths from drone attacks since January, Sudan Doctors Network said.
- A mosque in North Kordofan was struck at dawn, killing two children and injuring 13 in al‑Rahad city, the Sudan Doctors Network said, blaming the Rapid Support Forces.
- The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said recently the Kordofan region remains `volatile and a focus of hostilities` as the war that began in 2023 continues, with attacks on worship sites forming a `systematic pattern` according to the Sudan Doctors Network.
- The World Health Organization reports the conflict has killed at least 40,000 people and displaced 12 million, while the International Rescue Committee said several hundred shelters burned overnight in Tawila, North Darfur, affecting 500 households.
- There was no immediate RSF comment on the mosque strike, officials said; on Saturday, a drone attack hit a vehicle carrying displaced families, killing at least 24 people, including eight children.
- Figures reported last year show more than 15 mosques and over 165 churches have been damaged or closed throughout the war, while camps saw influxes after el‑Fasher fell to the RSF in October.
