Sudan teeters on the edge of a devastating civil war following deadly airstrike

The United Nations has issued a warning that Sudan is on the brink of a full-scale civil war after a weekend airstrike killed at least 22 people in the city of Omdurman. The ongoing infighting between Sudan's rival military forces has led to large-scale violence and casualties across the country, with reports of a disregard for humanitarian and human rights law. The UN Secretary General has called for an end to hostilities between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. The conflict has already resulted in hundreds of deaths and the displacement of millions of people.
