Renewed ethnic clashes erupt in Sudan’s far south, continuing to further deepen the country’s political unrest
Ethnic clashes often occur across Sudan's regions over land, livestock, access to water and grazing.
Violence erupted a day earlier between members of rival ethnic Nuba and Misseriya people in the town of Lagawa, in the country's far south, an army statement said on Saturday. The latest violence comes as Sudan grapples with deepening political unrest and a spiralling economic crisis since last year's military coup, led by army chief Abdel Fattah al Burhan.The military power grab upended a transition to civilian rule launched after the 2019 ouster of strongman Omar al Bashir, who ruled for three decades.
On Thursday, renewed violence between the Hausa people and rival groups in Sudan's Blue Nile state killed at least four people, according to a tribal leader and a medic.Similar clashes erupted in Blue Nile state in July and again in September, leaving more than 120 people dead.
