24 civilians killed in RSF artillery strike on El-Fasher

[SUDANTRIBUNE] At least 24 non-combatants were killed and dozens were maimed by intense artillery shelling from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in el-Fasher, the capital of Sudan
 ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
's North Darfur state, doctors said on Thursday.
The city has been under its most violent mostly peaceful air and ground attacks from the RSF for more than 10 consecutive days, forcing thousands of people to flee.
A statement from the Sudan Doctors' Network said the shelling on Wednesday targeted the central market area and the Awlad al-Reef neighbourhood. ''Twenty-four people were killed and 55 others injured, including five women,'' the group said.
The doctors' network condemned what it called a ''massacre'' and a ''heinous crime,'' adding it to a series of alleged war crimes and genocide targeting unarmed civilians in el-Fasher for more than a year, amid a tight siege and severe shortages of food and medicine.
The statement described the targeting of densely populated residential areas as a ''flagrant violation of all international and humanitarian laws.''
It accused the international community, the UN Security Council, and the African Union
...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful...
of ''silence and inability'' to confront the crimes and called for immediate action to stop the shelling and lift the siege on the city.
As fighting intensifies, thousands of trapped residents face a severe humanitarian crisis, with shortages of food and medicine after the RSF cut off all roads into el-Fasher and blocked aid deliveries.
