Drone strike on Kordofan hospital kills seven in Sudan
A drone attack struck an army hospital in the besieged southern Sudanese city of Dilling on Sunday, killing seven civilians and injuring 12 others, News.Az reports, citing the Asharq Al-Awsat.
The victims included patients and their companions, the medic said on condition of anonymity, explaining that the army hospital "serves the residents of the city and its surroundings, in addition to military personnel".
Dilling, in the flashpoint state of South Kordofan, is controlled by the Sudanese army but is besieged by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
The greater Kordofan region is currently facing the fiercest fighting in Sudan's war between the army and the RSF, as both seek to wrest control of the massive southern region.
The UN has repeatedly warned the region is in danger of witnessing a repeat of the atrocities that unfolded in North Darfur state capital El-Fasher, including mass killing, abductions and sexual violence.
