The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on Tuesday accused the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) of bombing the Tora market in North Darfur State, saying the attack caused hundreds of casualties.



Independent news outlet Sudan Tribune reported that more than 100 people were killed and dozens wounded in heavy airstrikes on Tora, north of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur. The Sudanese army has not commented on the claim.



UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said the UN was "gravely alarmed by the continued attacks on civilians," citing Monday's airstrike and an RSF artillery attack on a Khartoum mosque on Sunday.



Separately, the SAF on Tuesday released a map for the first time outlining its areas of control and RSF-held territory, as fighting between the two sides continues.
