According to CNN, hundreds of people have died in the Sudanese region of West Darfur, as fighting between the two rival military factions battling control in the country escalated as well as drawing in local militia groups.

The fighting in West Darfur has forced tens of thousands of people to flee across the border to Chad, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) said a total of 60,000 refugees have moved across since the conflict broke out in April.

Fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Reaction Force in Sudan’s Darfur region has widened, drawing in Arab militias and largely non-Arab African armed groups who have been in recurrent conflict since the start of the unresolved Darfur conflict in 2003.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) expressed concern over the risk of many children falling victims in the conflicts as the WHO report indicated that at least nine children have died and over 50 others injured among the mentioned casualties./.
