At least 27 civilians were killed and more than 130 injured in recent clashes between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state.
The clashes come after the Paris conference on Sudan last April, which saw an attempt to raise funds to reduce the Sudanese humanitarian crisis, as it witnessed UN warnings of a worsening situation if the city of Fasher is stormed.
The United Nations, through its Office for Humanitarian Affairs, announced that the victims included women and children, and that the clashes forced about 850 people in the locality to flee to different areas because of these clashes.
The conflicts come weeks after the RSF mobilized thousands of fighters around the city of El Fasher, and the Sudanese army, backed by Darfuri armed groups, has beefed up its military presence at the entrances to the city and around its main neighborhoods.
The current confrontations in El Fasher are occurring violently due to the military equipment that has been mobilized and the armed factions joining the army, and it is difficult to predict what will happen, but what is certain is that the civilian casualties will be significant.
The United Nations has warned that any possible attack on El Fasher, which is teeming with displaced people, would have serious consequences for the civilian population.
El Fasher is one of the strategic cities in North Darfur in western Sudan, as it is the only large city accessible from northern Sudanese cities such as Al-Dibba to the Darfur region, and it is the only entrance for humanitarian aid convoys coming from the port of Port Sudan on the Red Sea coast.
