Khartoum, May 9 (UNI) At least three children were killed and four others injured on Thursday in a drone strike by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Omdurman city, northwest of Sudan's capital Khartoum, according to a volunteer group.
"An RSF drone struck a home in District 16, west of Omdurman, killing three children and injuring four others, who were transferred to the hospital for medical treatment," the Sudanese Doctors Network, a volunteer group, said in a statement.
