Sudan Doctors Network: One person was killed and five others were injured after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) targeted a fuel station in the city of Kosti. One person was killed and five others were injured as a result of what the network described as a deliberate RSF drone strike on a fuel station in Kosti, White Nile State, this morning. The network also reported that the RSF targeted the cities of Umm Rawaba and Al-Rahad in North Kordofan State in attacks aimed at civilian areas with no military presence. The network stressed that the continued targeting of civilian facilities and infrastructure constitutes a serious violation and further worsens the suffering of citizens amid the country's difficult humanitarian conditions. The Sudan Doctors Network renewed its call on the international community and relevant organizations to pressure RSF leaders to protect civilians and service and medical facilities, and to stop attacks on residential areas and markets. It also affirmed its commitment to monitoring violations and documenting the impact of the war on civilians and health services.
