RSF fighters advancing westward towards the border with Chad last week killed another 63 people in and around the town of Kernoi, a medical source in the local hospital told AFP Sunday. The war's fiercest violence is currently unfolding in Kordofan, Sudan's vast oil-rich southern region that links Darfur to the capital Khartoum, which the army recaptured last year.
