On Sunday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres denounced the air strike in Omdurman, which killed at least 22 people and wounded dozens.
In a statement, Guterres “remains deeply concerned that the ongoing war between the armed forces has pushed Sudan to the brink of a full-scale civil war, potentially destabilizing the entire region.”
He continued: “There is an utter disregard for humanitarian and human rights law that is dangerous and disturbing.”
According to Ministry of Health's numbers, 22 dead and a large number of wounded among the civilians” from the strike on Khartoum’s sister city Omdurman, in the district of Dar Al-Salam, which means “House of Peace” in Arabic.
After nearly three months of war between Sudan’s rival generals, the air strike is the latest incident to provoke outrage.
About 3,000 people have been killed in the conflict, survivors have reported a wave of sexual violence and witnesses have spoken of ethnically targeted killings.
