Overview

• Local responders reported 75 dead, the Sudan Doctors Network counted 43, and a senior medical source told the BBC the toll reached 78, with bodies still being recovered.
• Aid workers and Sudan’s army blamed the RSF for the strike; the group has not commented, and verification is hampered by access restrictions and a communications blackout.
• The blast hit a mosque serving people displaced from the Abu Shouk camp, which open‑source analysts say the RSF has largely overrun during renewed advances around El Fasher.
• A UN human rights report released Friday recorded at least 3,384 civilian deaths in January–June 2025, including 990 summary executions, and flagged increased drone attacks and ethnic violence, mostly in Darfur.
• The UN says about 260,000 civilians are trapped in El Fasher with little aid or healthcare, and the ICRC reports only one surgical hospital remains operational in the city.
