PORT SUDAN, Sudan, Dec 10, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - A Sudanese military air strike on a market in a town in North Darfur killed more than 100 people and wounded hundreds on Monday, a pro-democracy lawyers' group said Tuesday.

"The air strike took place on the town's weekly market day, where residents from various nearby villages had gathered to shop, resulting in the death of more than 100 people and injury of hundreds, including women and children," said the Emergency Lawyers, who have been documenting human rights abuses during the 20-month war between Sudan's army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.
