Sudan rocked by air strikes; 100 people murdered in Darfur

Clashes between armed combatants in a city in Sudan’s restive Darfur region last month killed at least 100 people.

Hospitals were closed in the Darfur city of Genena, and an accurate count of the wounded remained difficult, according to a statement posted late Sunday (07 May).

Air strikes jolted Sudan’s capital again on Monday (08 May), while the latest truce talks in Jeddah produced no results, and a Saudi envoy said both sides believe they are “capable of winning the battle.”
