Salah Saleh, a doctor and former medical director at the main hospital in the provincial capital of Genena, said on Saturday the clashes wounded at least 79 others.Salah warned that the casualty toll was likely much higher. Darfur remains scarred by war after a rebellion in the early 2000s was brutally suppressed. The most recent violence comes two weeks after the UN Security Council ended the joint UN -African Union peacekeeping force’s mandate in the region.Governor Mohammed Abdalla al-Douma said that the government imposed a curfew and granted security forces and soldiers a mandate to use force to control the situation, according to copies of the decree obtained by The Associated Press.
Adam Regal, a spokesman for a local organisation that helps run refugee camps in Darfur, shared footage showing the burned homes and property in the Krinding camp following Saturday's attack. The video included graphic images of wounded people with blood-stained clothes. The footage also showed women and children carrying their belongings, allegedly fleeing clashes in the camp.
