— 🇸🇩: October 18, 2026 At least 11 internally displaced people were martyred and dozens wounded in an alleged Rapid Support Forces (RSF) attack on Hajar Sanakeet, Sirba locality, near Sudan's border with Chad. According to Babiker Hamdeen, the Darfur Regional Government's health and social welfare minister, the October 17 attack predominantly affected women and children. The victims had reportedly fled earlier RSF attacks on Narouma, Karmaliya, and Gagrumba, where homes were burned and property looted, forcing families toward the Chadian border. #Sudan @NewsFromSudan
