A Sudanese medical organisation has accused fighters linked to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) of killing at least 27 civilians during attacks on villages in North Kordofan state.
According to the Sudan Doctors Network, the assault happened in the al-Murrah area west of Bara on Thursday, the second day of Eid al-Adha celebrations. The group said elderly residents were among those killed.
The Cairo-based medical NGO described the incident as a “serious crime against unarmed civilians” and stated that the targeted villages had no military presence.
Sudan has remained trapped in a devastating civil war since April 2023, when tensions between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the RSF escalated into nationwide fighting. The conflict has left hundreds of thousands dead and displaced millions across the country and neighbouring states.
North Kordofan and the wider Kordofan region have become major conflict zones as both sides battle for territory and control of strategic resources, including oil fields and gold mines.
In its statement, the Sudan Doctors Network condemned the attacks, saying assaults on villages and civilian communities violate international humanitarian law. The organisation also warned that continued violence is worsening Sudan’s humanitarian disaster by forcing more families to flee their homes.
The latest violence comes as aid agencies warn of deepening hunger across Sudan. A new report by the UN-backed Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) says nearly 19.5 million people are facing acute food insecurity, with more than 40 percent of the population struggling to access enough food.
Human rights groups and humanitarian organisations have repeatedly called for stronger international action to protect civilians and push for an end to attacks on residential communities.
