A devastating drone attack took place in the town of Kalogi, in the South Kordofan region of Sudan, killing at least 50 people, of which 33 were children, according to BBC reports. The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group involved in the civil conflict in Sudan, are accused of the attack by the Sudanese Doctors Network. In response, the RSF accused the army of a drone attack on a market in Darfur. The army-aligned foreign ministry stated that the garden was hit by two rockets and that civilians trying to help were also attacked. UNICEF condemned the attack, emphasizing that the killing of children in schools is a serious violation of their rights. The civil war in Sudan began in April 2023, generating a profound humanitarian crisis in the region.
