Sudan clashes between Arab and Non-Arab war-ravaged Darfur region have killed a least 168 on Sunday. Sudanese aids groups said that several hospitals were also attacked in the violence.
The fight erupted after the killing of two people by non-Arabs in retaliation for two armed people tribesmen attacking the village of the non-Arab Massalit minority area on Thursday.
The deadly violence has been a spike in conflict since October last year targeted by disputes mainly over land, livestock, and access to water and grazing. Darfur was damaged by the civil war that stands in 2003.
A tribal leader from the Massalit minority described on Sunday, seeing multiple bodies in villages of the Krink region, which is about 80 km (50 miles) from west Darfur’s provincial capital, Geneina.
The international committee of the Red Cross called on authorities to ensure the safe arrival of the injured at the hospital.
According to the UN and Medics, in recent months several people have been killed and hundreds of houses torch in several boats of violence in the process.
The clashes eventually reached Genena, where militias and armed groups attacked wounded people while they were being treated at the city’s main hospital, said Salah Saleh, a doctor and former medical director at the hospital. Authorities said they deployed more troops and a military aircraft to the region since Thursday fighting left eight dead and at least 16 wounded.
