South kordofan: At least 12 people were killed and several others seriously wounded when the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) struck two sites sheltering displaced civilians in South Kordofan state, a local medical group said Saturday.

According to Anadolu Agency, the Sudan Doctors Network reported that seven civilians, including women and children, were killed when the RSF shelled a camp for displaced people in the al-Abbasiya Tagali area in the state.

The attacks continued as the RSF launched a drone strike targeting the headquarters of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in the provincial capital, Kadugli, which resulted in the deaths of five children.

The network labeled the attacks as 'another crime added to the record of genocide being carried out by the RSF.' There has been no immediate comment from the RSF regarding the attacks.

Sudan has been enduring a civil war between the army and the RSF since April 2023, leading to thousands of deaths and the displacement of millions of people.
