An airstrike in a Sudanese city on Saturday killed at least 22 people in one of the deadliest air attacks yet in the three months of fighting between the country’s rival generals, AP reported quoting officials.

The assault took place in Omdurman, the neighboring city of the capital, Khartoum, according to a brief statement by the health ministry. 

It was one of the deadliest in the fighting in urban areas of the capital and elsewhere in Sudan. The conflict pits the military against a powerful paramilitary group known as the Rapid Support Forces.
