At least 17 children, including an infant just seven days old, have reportedly been killed in an attack on the Dar al-Arqam Displacement Centre in El Fasher, North Darfur, early on Saturday morning.
Missiles struck as many people were asleep in classrooms converted into temporary shelters, a doctor said. Paramilitary forces have tightened their siege on El Fasher for over a year.
A shelling and drone attack by the Sudanese paramilitary forces hit a shelter in a besieged city in the Darfur region, killing at least 53 people, a doctors' group said Saturday. The onslaught was the latest in Sudan's more than two-year war.
