At least three people were killed, including the well-known activist Ibrahim Showtime, after the Rapid Support RSF Militia continued to bomb several neighborhoods in the capital of North Darfur state, while Doctors Without Borders said on Saturday that the Saudi hospital in El Fasher was bombed for the ninth time.
Identical sources in El Fasher said that activist Ibrahim Showtime was killed late Friday night after an artillery shell hit the house where he was living in El Fasher, as affirmed by the Coordination of Resistance Committees there.
Volunteers also spoke about the killing of Sudanese Red Crescent volunteer Mohamed Omar Mohamed Ibrahim, after a shell fell near his house in the capital of North Darfur, in addition to the killing of Ahmed Makan, a member of El Fasher Resistance Committees.
Eyewitnesses told Sudan Tribune that the Rapid Support Forces RSF continued to fire artillery shells intensively on Saturday from their positions in eastern El Fasher towards the western neighborhoods of the city, which are densely populated areas after large numbers of citizens from the eastern and southern neighborhoods were displaced to them.
The Rapid Support Forces RSF artillery targeted citizens’ homes in the First Class neighborhood and the vicinity of the Saudi Hospital.
Osman Ahmed Yahya, a volunteer at the Saudi Hospital, told Sudan Tribune that the Rapid Support Forces RSF militia is striving to put the Saudi Hospital out of service permanently, as it has been shelling the medical facility and its surroundings with large numbers of artillery shells since last Thursday, which led to the departure of some patients and medical staff.
