At least 12 people were killed in attacks by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on villages in Sudan’s Gezira State on Friday.
According to media reports, the RSF targeted eight villages in the Al-Meheiriba area of western Gezira.
However, the RSF has not commented on the allegations. Sudan has been gripped by a devastating conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the RSF since mid-April last year, which resulted in more than 27 thousand deaths and displaced over 14 million people, both within Sudan and across its borders, according to estimates by international organizations.
The Nidaa Al-Wasat Platform, a local volunteer group, said the RSF targeted eight villages in the Al-Meheiriba area of western Gezira on Thursday, launching intensive shelling and direct attacks on residents, Xinhua news agency reported.
