150 Killed In Two Days Of Ethnic Clashes In Sudan

At least 150 people have reportedly been killed in ethnic clashes in the last two days in Sudan Blue Nile State in the South.

The fighting is said to be the worst in recent months.

The violence broke out last week between rival ethnic groups following a land dispute in which more than a dozen people were killed.

An overnight curfew was put in place to contain the violence.

The UN said on Thursday that it was “alarmed by violence escalation in Lagawa and conflict resurgence in the Blue Nile Region”.

Sudan has been grappling with political unrest and violence since last year’s military coup.
