The volunteer group, named the Resistance Committee Wad Madani, moved voluntarily to coordinate aid to all areas of Sudan affected by the war.

Berdasarkan pernyataan mereka kepada AFP, Selasa 22 Oktober, serangan militer Sudan di masjid di ibu kota negara bagian Al-Jazira itu terjadi pada Minggu 20 Oktober malam setelah salat Isya.

The volunteer group accused the Sudanese military of using a "bomber".

Civil war has been raging between Sudanese military and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023. As a result, tens of thousands of people have died, many have fled and the world's largest humanitarian crisis.

The two conflicting troops were involved in brutal fighting in the Al-Jazira agricultural area in central Sudan. The area has been under paramilitary control since late last year.

Both Sudanese and RSF militants are accused of war crimes, including targeting civilians, firing on residential areas indiscriminately, and blocking or looting aid.

RSF is specifically accused of massive looting, surrounding the entire village, and committing systematic sexual violence in Al-Jazira and throughout Sudan.
