Eyewitnesses said that the army carried out heavy bombardment from the Karari military base on Thursday night, targeting RSF sites.
Local sources reported that heavy weapons and missiles were used in the clashes, resulting in deaths and injuries and the destruction of public and private property.
Meanwhile, emergency lawyers condemned the imposition of the siege implemented by the RSF in the Al-Fatihab area of Omdurman and the violations they are committing, which go against international humanitarian law.
For its part, the Al-Fatihab Resistance Committees said that more than one hundred thousand residents of the city of Al-Fitaihab have been subjected to a continuous siege by the RSF for weeks.
The Committees indicated in a statement that most of the residents had not had food for three days due to the prevention of the entry of alimentation and medicines, along with a complete outage of electricity and water. This is in addition to preventing civilians from leaving.
At the same time, a woman was killed in the city of El Obeid, the capital of North Kordofan State (Western Sudan), on Thursday, as a result of her injuries from military skirmishes between the SAF and RSF in the city.
During these days, the city of El-Obeid is witnessing escalating tensions between the fighting parties, especially after the military operations that most Darfur cities witnessed during the past days.
