"The medical group said the RSF directly bombed the facility. It alleged the attack was a full-fledged war crime and showed a complete disregard for the lives of civilians and international laws that protect health facilities and their workers. The group held the RSF fully responsible for the attack and appealed to the international community and the United Nations Security Council to take immediate action to stop attacks on health facilities and civilian homes and to protect the devastated health system in the besieged city."
"At least 12 people have been killed and 17 were wounded when the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) shelled a hospital in Sudan's North Darfur state, medical sources said. A female doctor and a nursing staff member were among the injured in the attack on the el-Fasher Hospital, the Sudan Doctors Network said in a statement on Wednesday. Two medical sources confirmed Wednesday's attack, which was the second on the hospital within 24 hours,"
Rapid Support Forces shelled el-Fasher Hospital in North Darfur, killing at least 12 people and wounding 17, including a female doctor and a nursing staff member. The Sudan Doctors Network said the RSF directly bombed the facility and characterized the attack as a full-fledged war crime, holding the RSF fully responsible and appealing to the international community and the UN Security Council for immediate action to protect health facilities and civilians. The hospital is one of the last functioning facilities in el-Fasher after repeated bombings and shutdowns. The RSF has blockaded el-Fasher since May 10, 2024 amid a wider conflict since April 2023 that has killed tens of thousands, displaced about 15 million and pushed nearly 25 million into acute hunger.
