Khartoum, March 11 (Xinhua) — At least 69 people were killed this week in drone strikes on a truck carrying people, a school, and a medical center in two Sudanese states, medical sources and volunteers said on Wednesday.
In the first incident, a drone struck a civilian truck carrying people in the city of Abu Zabad in West Kordofan State in southern Sudan on Tuesday, killing 52 people. Eyewitnesses reported that the truck was carrying approximately 90 passengers. The dead included mostly women, along with several men and children.
The survivors were taken to Abu Zabad's only functioning hospital and nearby facilities, where medical staff treated the wounded amid overcrowding and shortages of medicine.
A second strike on Wednesday killed 17 people in the village of Shukairi, near the town of Kosti in White Nile State in central Sudan. Nine students, three teachers, four patients, and one health worker were killed.
The Sudanese Doctors Network said the strike targeted a school and a health centre, calling it a deliberate attack on unarmed civilians and a violation of international law.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attacks. The Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Intervention Force have not yet commented on the incident. –0–
