Recent reports from Sudan indicate a surge in violence in the country's capital, Khartoum, as the death toll continues to rise due to a worsening cholera outbreak. The military in Sudan launched an operation aimed at regaining control of areas held by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, resulting in increased military movements and airstrikes in Khartoum and Omdurman.
The ongoing conflict has also heavily impacted the city of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, where the Rapid Support Forces have besieged the city since May. The United Nations' Human Rights Chief reported that artillery shelling in El Fasher resulted in the deaths of at least 20 civilians.
