Heavy Fighting Erupts in Sudan’s Al-Fasher Amid Ongoing Conflict

Al-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, is experiencing intense fighting as the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continue their siege, which began in May, Arab News reported yesterday.

Witnesses report deserted neighborhoods filled with explosions, and the central market has become uninhabitable. The Yale School of Public Health’s Humanitarian Research Lab has documented unprecedented combat levels, with significant escalation in recent days.

The RSF claims to have seized military sites, while local authorities report that the army has repelled major attacks. The ongoing conflict has led to a severe displacement crisis, with millions affected.
