The paramilitary rebel group RSF has killed at least 40 civilians and injured another 19 at a famine-stricken refugee camp in the Darfur region in western Sudan on Monday.
The attacked camp Abu Shouk is located north of El-Fasher, the last city in the region still controlled by Sudan's regular army. The country has been at war since 2023, when the conflict between the country's army and RSF broke out and spread across the country.
Abu Shouk is one of three refugee camps in Sudan where famine has been declared.
Over 20,000 people have been killed and over 14 million have been displaced from their homes. The situation in Sudan is described as the worst humanitarian disaster in the world.
