Recent clashes between the Sudanese military and rival paramilitary groups in North Darfur have resulted in a tragic loss of innocent lives, with at least 13 children killed and four others injured, according to UNICEF.
The children, aged between 6 and 17 years old, were caught in the crossfire as the Sudanese army conducted airstrikes targeting a market in the town of Al Kuma, located east of the North Darfur capital of El Fasher. The airstrikes also struck the city of Mellit, resulting in the deaths of at least 45 people and injuring dozens more.
