ALBAWABA - According to local activists, at least 31 people were killed in an airstrike launched by the Sudanese Armed Forces on a mosque earlier on Sunday.
A group of local activists stated on Tuesday that 31 people were killed two days ago in a military air attack on a mosque in Sudan's central city of Wad Madani.
According to the Wad Madani Resistance Committee, one of the hundreds of volunteer groups organizing relief across the war-torn country, the attack took place "after evening prayers" in the capital of Al-Jazira state, just south of Khartoum.
"Military aircraft bombed the Sheikh El Jeili mosque and its surroundings in the western extension neighborhood with barrel bombs after evening prayer," the Wad Madani Resistance Committees said in a statement.
The military forces have been accused of conducting indiscriminate air raids on RSF-controlled areas throughout Sudan, resulting in hundreds of civilian fatalities and massive destruction across the country.
The Wad Madani Resistance Committees said that the RSF committed massacres against villages in eastern Al Jazirah, including Tambul, Rufaa, and El Geneid El Hilla.
The Rufaa Resistance Committees reported 20 civilian deaths in eastern Al Jazirah, with the heaviest toll in Tambul, where ten individuals, including a female doctor, were reportedly killed.
