With violence escalating across the country, the attack took place as people gathered for a weekly market.

Sudan's military has been accused of carrying out an air strike on a marketplace in the western region of Darfur in which more than 100 people were reportedly killed.

Both sides deny carrying out war crimes during their 19-month power struggle that has caused the world's biggest humanitarian crisis and forced more than 11 million people from their homes.According to Emergency Lawyers, the air strike happened as residents from nearby villages came to shop in Kabkabiya, about 180km west of el-Fasher, the only city still under military control in Darfur and which has been under siege since April.

On Sunday, an air strike hit a petrol station in an RSF-controlled area of Khartoum, killing at least 28 people.The army has fighter jets, but it has denied deliberately targeting civilians. The rights group has previously documented similar abuses as part of a campaign of ethnic cleansing in West Darfur.
