Tawila / El Obeid — A vehicle transporting emergency shelter kits for the UN Refugee Agency UNHCR to Tawila in North Darfur, was destroyed in a drone strike in North Darfur on Friday, April 24, leaving the unhurt, but leaving more than 1,300 families without shelter. In a separate attack, at least seven people were killed, and 22 others were wounded in an attack by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) using drones of El Obeid in North Kordofan on Saturday.
In a statement, UNHCR confirms that the vehicle was transporting emergency shelter kits to Tawila, where more than 700,000 displaced people have sought refuge after fleeing fighting in other parts of Darfur. "The driver escaped unhurt, but the supplies were destroyed in the ensuing fire," the UNHCR statement confirms, without accusing any party of the attack.
