One resident said hundreds of people have been displaced from Nyala on Sunday, Sudan's second-largest city and capital of South Darfur state, where"rockets are falling on houses". The war erupted in Khartoum on April 15 between the forces of army chief Abdel Fattah al Burhan and his former deputy, RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.
At least 3,900 people have been killed nationwide, according to a conservative estimate by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project.
