Violence in Sudan’s Kordofan region is escalating rapidly, with hospitals and civilian infrastructure increasingly caught in the crossfire.

The United Nations says intensified fighting between the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudanese Armed Forces has caused civilian casualties and major destruction.

A drone strike this week reportedly struck Dilling General Hospital in Dilling, killing four patients.

Meanwhile, the town of Kadugli is experiencing heightened insecurity, while El Obeid has faced multiple drone attacks over the past five days.

The UN warns that continued attacks on civilian infrastructure could deepen Sudan’s already severe humanitarian crisis.
