A medical source told AFP that 40 people were killed by a market for a market in Omdurman, part of Greater Khartum, a market.
Requesting oblivion for their safety, the source of the Al-Nao Hospital said that “was still being brought to the hospital” after the attack by the Rapid Support Force (RSF).
Since April 2023, the paramilitary RSF has been in war with the regular army, in a cruel struggle that has killed tens of thousands and outbreaks over 12 million.
A survivor told AFP, “The shells fell in the middle of the vegetable market, which is why there are so many victims and injured.”
A volunteer at the Al-Nao Hospital told AFP that he was in dire need of “shroud, blood donors and stretchers” to carry the injured.
The hospital is one of the final medical facilities working in the area, and has been repeatedly attacked.
Following a clear deadlock of months in the capital, the army managed to regain major locations including its Khartum headquarters this month, pushed the RSF out of its many strongholds and increased rapidly on the outskirts of the city.
Eyewitnesses to the attack on Saturday – the latest to target citizens in markets only – AFP said the Artillery Shelling came from Western Omdurman, where RSF lives under control, and was supported by drone.
In Omdurman, a resident in the south said that the RSF was firing on several streets at once, saying that “rockets and artillery shells are falling”.

RSF commander Mohammad Hamdan Daglo vowed to withdraw the capital from the army.
He told the soldiers at a rare video address, “We had expelled them (from Khartum) first, and we would re -expel them.”
Soon after the first shelling started about 22 months earlier, the capital of Sudan was converted into its former self shell.
According to a report by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, thousands of people died across the country, 26,000 people were killed in the capital alone between April 2023 and June 2024.
According to United Nations data, the entire neighborhood has been vacated and at least 3.6 million people have fled the capital by the fighters.
Those unable to release those people have reported to kill homes and residential areas regularly, while some parts of the capital have been threatened with millions of starvation.
According to the United Nations -backed Integrated Food Safety Phase Classification, at least 106,000 people are estimated to suffer from famine in Khartum, with a 3.2 million experience experience.
Crossing the northeastern African country, famine has been declared in five regions-it is expected to hold five more in the western region of Darfur-and by May.
Before leaving the post, the administration of former US President Joe Biden approved the Sudani Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Boron, with attacks on schools, markets and hospitals and using food lack as war weapons The army was accused.
Washington came about a week later a week later, about a week after RSF dominates RSF in Sudan’s Darfur region “gross violation of human rights”.
The United States said that the army of Daglo had a “massacre”.
