A dangerous attack on a hospital in the city of Al -Majalid, western Kurdovan, Sudan, killed at least 40 people, including children and medical staff.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed serious concern over the incident and demanded that attacks on health centers be stopped.
According to the World News Agency AFP, the hospital’s location was included in the areas that are considered frontline in the ongoing civil war between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary organization Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
According to the WHO, the attack severely damaged the hospital building, 6 children and 5 medical workers also lost their lives. The human rights organization ‘Emergency Laws’ says the attack was carried out by a military drone, but the attacker has not yet been confirmed.
On the other hand, the Sudanese government has alleged that Kenya and the United Arab Emirates are providing weapons to RSF. The Foreign Ministry claimed that the weapons brought from Kenya were recovered from a RSF arms depot in Khartoum.
Thousands of people have been killed and more than 100 million displaced in the war between April 2023 between Sudanese army chief Abdul Fateh Al -Burhan and RSF commander Mohammad Hamdan Duglo. UN chief Antonio Guterres has also expressed strong concern over external intervention.
