Six dead as a RSF attack destroys the Sudanese Hospital in North Kordovan Sudan war news

Obeid Hospital suffers from severe damage to the semi -military attack, which exacerbates the health crisis in the civil war of Sudan.

Officials and rights advocates said that at least six people were killed in a local drone attack by the RSF Rapid Forces (RSF) in a hospital in South Sudan, officials and rights advocates said.

Emergency lawyers, a rights group, blamed RSF in the attack on Friday at Obeid International Hospital, Al -Dahaman, in Obaid, the capital of North Cordovan Province. He said that at least 15 others were injured in the attack.

In a social media statement, the hospital said the attack caused severe damage to the main building. She said that the services in the hospital, the main medical facility that serves the area, was suspended until further notice.

The Sudanese Armed Forces source (SAF) told the news agency to Agence France -Presse that the bombing also struck a second hospital in the city center.

The city is a major position on the road to the road to supply the army to the west, where the besieged city of Al -Fashir is the only capital of the state in the vast Darfur region, which is still under the control of the army -led government.

The Cashir has witnessed a drain between SAF and RSF since May 2024, despite international warnings about the risks of violence in a city working as a major human center for the five Darfur countries.

Cholera

In addition to the humanitarian problems on the ground, the Ministry of Health in the state of Khartoum on Thursday informed 942 new cholera infections and 25 deaths the day before, after 1177 cases and 45 deaths the day before.

Relief workers say the efforts to control the outbreak of cholera deteriorate due to the near collapse of health services, as they are no longer about 90 percent of hospitals in the main hot areas.

Since August 2024, Sudan has reported more than 65,000 Cholera suspected cases At least 1700 deaths across 12 out of 18 states. Khartoum alone has seen 7700 cases and 185 deaths, including more than 1,000 infections in children under the age of five, as is the case with more than two years of fighting between the army and RSF.

“Sudan needs an urgent increase to help combat cholera, which is hundreds of cases per day, which exceeded more than 1000 cases per day,” said Jean Nicholas Armstrong, Sulavan Doctors in Sudan.

“This is only the tip of the iceberg, because no one has the full picture at the moment, unfortunately,” said Dangear.

Dangers said that the fighting in the Al -Salha area, south of Ondurman, where there was a pocket of sick people with cholera, “contributed greatly” to the spread of the disease. The army said on May 19 that it took control of the Al -Salha area, which is the last stronghold of RSF in the state of Khartoum.

Dangelser added: “Now, it is not only the returnees to Khartoum, which increases the exacerbation of the situation due to the devastating water system and a lack of health care, but it is now spreading to Darfur, where people have been displaced by fighting.”

Violence and death follow the Sudanese, fleeing the war outside the borders of their country. On Friday, 11 Sudanese refugees and a Libyan driver were killed in a desert car accident in Libya, according to the local authorities.

Since the outbreak of the fighting between RSF and SAF in April 2023, the United Nations said 11 million people were forced to leave their homes, including 250,000 who fled to neighboring Libya.

Tens of thousands were killed in the civil war.
