SAF continues bombing East Jebel Marra

According to eye-witnesses, the Sudanese Air Forces continued bombardments in the East Jebel Marra region.

Sources informed Radio Dabanga that an MiG aircraft bombed the village of El-Nimra at around four o'clock on Tuesday. The attack resulted in the death of a number of livestock and caused fires in several farms.

Residents said the bombing led them to flee the area into neighboring valleys and mountain creeks in search of safety.

The fires are still spreading after the bombardments, witnesses from East Jebel Marra added to Radio Dabanga.
