The North Darfur state government said at least 15 people were killed and dozens wounded in artillery shelling by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on the Abu Shouk camp market for displaced people

As fighting continues in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, which has been besieged since mid-April, the government of the western state said the RSF was targeting civilian facilities, residential areas and displacement camps with heavy artillery and marches on a daily basis, putting thousands of lives at stake.
The North Darfur government said in a statement on Wednesday that the “Rapid Support” bombing of the Abu Shouk camp market for displaced people was not the first of its kind.
It condemned the bombing of El Fasher Secondary School for Girls, the Scientific Library, the Center for Peace Studies at the Omdurman Islamic University branch, the Sub-Saharan Private University College and other service institutions. She said that the Rapid Support Forces seek, through continuous shelling, to forcibly displace the population, adding: “The direct targeting of civilians by the forces of Mohamed Hamdan Daglo “Hemedti” in their homes, money, service centers and markets confirms their determination to proceed and their explicit and continuous violations of human rights and violation of all international humanitarian norms and laws, which requires the concerned international authorities to act immediately to stop these violations.”.

It denounced the positions of what it called “sponsors and supporters of rapid support”, accusing them of creating reasons for the displacement of civilians from their homes and fragmenting Sudan’s unity to seize its resources.
This comes amid the ongoing suffering of besieged people in the southeastern city of Suki.
In this context, the Suki Emergency Room said that the state has been suffering from dire humanitarian conditions since the Rapid Support Forces took control of the city last July, pointing to the deteriorating health, economic and security conditions in the city, which resulted in living hardship and a complete lack of all goods and consumables.
The Sudanese Communist Party denounced the escalation of attacks by “Rapid Support Forces evaders” in the Shambat area, north of the Sudanese capital Khartoum. He said that the attacks on the area controlled by the “support” for nearly a year and a half and the armed raids carried out on citizens’ homes have killed dozens of young people in the area.

Residents there face repeated attempts to loot supply stores and communal kitchen work materials intended to serve and secure meals for citizens trapped in their homes amid the fighting. It denounced the attack by an armed force consisting of 23 members of the collective kitchen in the western Shambat area for the third time in a row, and its looting of food supplies, gas pipes, and work aids, considering the successive attacks targeting charity kitchens an attempt to disrupt them and expel the remaining families in the area (through the hunger industry). This is in addition to repeated attacks on volunteers in public work, looting and threatening members of kitchen work teams, the emergency room, and the assassination of an activist from the Electricity Working Group. He pointed to the looting of flour intended for bakeries in the area.

The Communist Party also condemned the continued fall of shells fired by the armed forces from the city of Omdurman in residential areas, adding: “Not even cemeteries and minarets were spared.
She pointed out that the people in Shambat suffer from the scarcity of food and the lack of clean drinking water, as a result of the scarcity of medicine and the lack of medical services, which killed many people due to hunger and lack of medicine, especially those with chronic diseases.
He called on the leadership of the Rapid Support Forces, which controls the area, which he said turns a blind eye to what is happening from its employees and their followers, including unruly and thieves, to arrest the members of their forces, and to do what would preserve the lives and rights of citizens.
He also called for the release of detainees held by the “Rapid Support” from the people of the region in the umbrella detention center and the disclosure of the real number and names of the deceased who were buried in the cemetery of the detainee, calling on the concerned organizations, especially the Crescent and the Red Cross, to visit the prison, and to find out the circumstances that led to the death of some civilians from the region and pressure for the release of detainees.
