At least 40 killed in Sudan shelling | BBC News

Pro-democracy activists in Sudan claim that about 40 people were killed in “violent artillery fire” when the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) shelled Khartoum’s twin city of Omdurman. The RSF are also accused of carrying out a “massacre” on Wednesday, where at least 150 people died. The RSF has not commented on the accusations. The fighting that has erupted in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, and elsewhere in the country is a direct result of a vicious power struggle between the regular army and a paramilitary force called the RSF.
