[SUDANTRIBUNE] At least 13 civilians, including a medical worker, were killed on Saturday during attacks launched by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in areas of West and South Kordofan states. The RSF committed widespread abuses against civilians, including killings, looting, and forced displacement, after gaining control of al-Dabibat, al-Hammadi, and Kazgail in South Kordofan, as well as al-Khawi locality and its surrounding villages in West Kordofan. Local sources told Sudan ![]() Tribune that RSF forces ''attacked the Tabaldiya area, north of al-Dabibat city, firing indiscriminately at civilians, which led to the killing of at least two people and the injury of three others.'' They indicated that the campaign of storming villages in the rural areas of al-Goz locality included al-Kureib village, where two people were killed and others injured. The sources reported that the RSF assassinated medical assistant Abdelbaqi Mohammed Ahmed with a direct shot to the head, while his two sons, Yassin and Mohammed, sustained severe injuries in al-Hammadi town. Meanwhile, ...back at the secret hideout, Scarface Al sneeringly put his proposition to little Nell... Dar Hamar Emergency Room stated that RSF forces ''executed about 8 citizens of al-Khawi city.'' The statement added that the RSF launched a widespread arrest campaign in al-Khawi, targeting dozens of young men, before looting homes, the main market, and solar power systems. The fierce battles in South and West Kordofan have forced thousands of citizens to flee from al-Dabibat city and its surrounding villages — al-Hammadi, Kazgail, Umm Shalakhti, Soshai, al-Abnawiya, Karkariya, al-Furqan, Hillat al-Mahdi, Umm Darasaya, and Umm Arada — walking towards EL-OBEID city in North Kordofan. |
