Cairo – One of the fiercest clashes since fighting broke out between the army and the RSF militia in mid-April on Tuesday in the Sudanese capital Khartoum. Since Monday, government forces have been attempting to seize a bridge over the Nile linking Khartoum with the city of Omdurman across the river, residents said. They used Luftwaffe and heavy artillery. The RSF, which gets its supplies across the bridge and has occupied a large part of the capital, launched massive counterattacks. There was fighting in residential areas. Civilians were killed and residents displaced. Civil rights activists in Omdurman reported that at least nine civilians had been killed.
