'The gunfire and explosions have been relentless.' Crisis mediation is under way to de-escalate the armed violence in Sudan after at least 97 people were killed and 365 injured. Sky's YousraElbagir shares the latest with us. 📺 Sky 501 / YouTube
Both the army and Rapid Support Forces have been responsible for committing atrocities against civilians. Hundreds have been killed since the 2019 revolution and many more injured.
Since 2020, Hemedti's troops have been officially charged with maintaining Darfur’s security. In this time, hundreds have been killed in communal clashes and border incursions with the Central African Republic. Nyala’s main hospital currently has no electricity and little capacity to help the wounded. Fighting has started in a strategic point in the city where residents are most vulnerable and hundreds more could be killed.
International mediation has come for all sides - the UN, UK, US, EU, African Union and Intergovernmental Authority on Development - to transition the country into democracy but drafted power-sharing framework agreements have been signed, although not sustained. A senior military official said RSF fighters clashed with troops at military headquarters early on Sunday and that a fire broke out at a facility for ground troops.What's going on in Sudan?
