> At least 25 bodies have been found in a mass grave in Sudan’s Blue Nile State. The dead reportedly include women, children, older people and medical workers. Local authorities accuse the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces of executing civilians while they held the town of Kurmuk. The RSF captured Kurmuk in February, before Sudanese army forces retook it last month after weeks of intense fighting. Heavy clashes and mass displacement have also been reported in West Darfur.
