At Least Five Killed in Sudan’s South Kordofan in Attack by Rebel Group

The medical group said the bombardment of civilian areas killed at least 5 people and injured several others, including a child.

  • At least 26 people died in two separate attacks on residential areas in South Kordofan province, Sudan, with The Sudan Doctors Network accusing the Sudan Peoples Liberation Movement-North of carrying out an artillery assault in Dilling on Friday and a second attack on Debi and Luweri near Kauda on Thursday killing more than 21 people, including women and children.
  • Leader Abdel Aziz al-Hilu aligned his SPLM-N forces with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and rejected a ceasefire initiative backed by the RSF last month, launching attacks on at least 10 Otoro villages and displacing thousands of civilians between August 20 and 26.
  • Attacks specifically targeted the Otoro tribe, a minority group in the Nuba Mountains, with The Sudan Doctors Network documenting the bombardment as a violation of international humanitarian law that worsened an already dire humanitarian situation.
  • A United Nations-backed independent fact-finding mission reported Thursday that foreign involvement, including external supply networks, foreign personnel, and military drones, is driving the conflict and worsening violence against civilians nationwide.
  • Nearly 34 million Sudanese, about two-thirds of the population, now require urgent humanitarian assistance as the broader civil war between the Sudanese military and the RSF has displaced approximately 13 million and pushed parts of the country into famine since April 2023.
