Oct. 11 (UPI) -- Locals said a drone and artillery attack on a refugee shelter by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in el-Fasher, Sudan, late Friday killed at least 60.
Local activists said the RSF struck the Dar al-Arqam refugee camp with two drone attacks and eight artillery shells, which the RSF has denied, the BBC reported.
"Children, women and the elderly were killed in cold blood, and many were completely burned," members of an el-Fasher resistance committee said in a prepared statement on Saturday.
The strikes killed at least 14 children and 15 women in the besieged city that is located in North Darfur in western Sudan.
Another 21 people, including five children, also were injured, according to the Sudan Doctors' Network.
