At least 57 people died in violent clashes between Sudanese paramilitaries and the regular army in the besieged Darfur city of El-Fasher, a medical source and a volunteer aid group said on Thursday, according to news agency AFP.
Commenting on the development, resistance committee, a volunteer aid group, said that the civilians were killed on Wednesday in clashes and shelling of the city by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
The paramilitary forces and the regular army are at war with each other since April 2023. Recently, the RSF has intensified its attacks on the Darfur city following the army라이브 바카라 recapture of the capital Khartoum last month.
Back in April, 2023, the civil war broke out in Sudan as both the military and RSF turned against each other as an attempt to grab power.
Since the start of the war in 2023, over 12 million Sudanese have been forced to flee their homes in Khartoum. Furthermore, around 28,000 people have been killed in the war and some areas of the nation have been pushed into famine.
The ever-escalating has also divided the country in two, with the army holding the center, north and east while the RSF controls nearly all of Darfur and, along with its allies, parts of the south.
Sudanese Civil War
The Sudanese Civil War broke out when in April 2023 after the army had to flee Khartoum and move to the Red Sea city of Port Sudan.
The civil war has also been termed as the world's "worst humanitarian disaster" by the United Nations.
Back in March, two years after the civil war in Sudan erupted, the Sudanese army has stated it was recaptured Khartoum, taking control from the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces. Army chief Abdul Fattah al-Burhan issued a video on Thursday in which he declared "Khartoum is free".
Sudan's army recaptured the presidential palace on Thursday as it declared the capital "free."
In a video posted by the military, Burhan was seen landing at the Khartoum International Airport, which was the first recapture of the Army. The Army Chief was seen kissing the ground and raising his fist in the air to troops.
While the RSF is believed to still hold parts of the Sudanese capital, the Army's return marks a major symbolic in the civil war.
After the military announced its recapture of the capital, Information Minister Khalid Aleiser, spokesman of the military-controlled government also took to social media to confirm the news.
"This is a pivotal and decisive moment in the history of Sudan. Khartoum is free, as it should be," he said.
After Khartoum, the Sudanese Army shelled parts of Omdurman, which is considered to be the capital's twin city, as they try to oust the RSF from key areas.
The RSF now continues to hold some areas in Omdurman, west Sudan's Darfur region and other areas.
Since the start of the war in 2023, over 12 million Sudanese have been forced to flee their homes in Khartoum. Furthermore, around 28,000 people have been killed in the war and some areas of the nation have been pushed into famine.
