The attack is seen as part of the series of attacks in the middle of the Civil War Escalation in the African Nation. Local officials have blamed rebel fast support forces for the attack against the maternal hospital of Saudi teaching.
The attack on the hospital is being linked to the recent losses of the group’s battlefield before the military and allied forces of Sudanese under the command of the army chief, ABDEL-Fattah Burhan gen.

The WHO General Director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus reported on the number of deaths in a position on the social platform X. In a position, Ghebreyesus wrote: “The attacker attack on the Saudi hospital in the phase, Sudan, caused 19 injuries and 70 deaths among patients Among patients between patients and companions.

Sudan is still unstable since 2019
Sudan has remained unstable since a popular uprising saw the elimination of dictator Omar al-Bashir in 2019.
However, the march to democracy ended soon when Burhan and General Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo of the RSF joined forces to lead a military coup in October 2021.
In particular, Al-Bashir faces charges in the International Criminal Court for carrying out a genocidal campaign in the early 2000s in the western region of Darfur with Janjaweed, the precursor of the RSF.
Rights and UN groups say that RSF and allied Arab militias are attacking African ethnic groups again in this war.
The RSF and the Sudan Army began to fight each other in April 2023. Their conflict has killed more than 28,000 people, forced millions to flee their homes and left some families eating grass in a desperate attempt to survive while the Hambruna sweep parts of the country.
