Fighting between Sudan’s two top generals and their heavily armed supporters has entered its fourth day, causing explosions and gunfire to be heard throughout the capital city of Khartoum.
The sudden outbreak of violence has left millions of people trapped in their homes or wherever they could find shelter, with supplies running low and several hospitals forced to shut down.
As of now, the death toll has risen to at least 185 people, and there are over 1,800 wounded. Both sides are using heavy weapons in densely populated areas, causing concern for the safety of civilians.
While the doctors’ syndicate reported 97 civilian deaths, there is no official word on the total number of casualties.
The ongoing clashes have left many bodies in the streets around central Khartoum that cannot be reached.
