UN backed human rights experts say a "campaign of destruction" in October by Sudanese paramilitary forces against non-Arab communities in and near a city in the western region of Darfur, shows “hallmarks of genocide." 

This week, dozens of civilians - including children - have been killed in drone strikes as the conflict continues in Sudan.

Drones, allegedly operated by the Sudanese Armed Forces, struck a market and a shelter in Kordofan in central Sudan.

Meanwhile, the paramilitary group - the Rapid Support Forces - has reportedly struck two primary schools in the same region.

At least 40,000 people have been killed and 12 million displaced by the war, which passed its 1000th day last month.
