An air strike by Sudan's army killed 22 people and injured dozens of others in the city of Omdurman adjoining the capital Khartoum, the Sudanese Health Ministry said on Saturday. The army has carried out repeated air strikes against the rival paramilitary Rapid Support Forces since the two sides began fighting nearly three months ago. The RSF has established bases in residential areas while the army has struggled to take advantage of its air superiority. Residents on Friday reported air strikes in the area of the state broadcaster's headquarters in Omdurman and anti-aircraft fire to repel the raids. An IGAD official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that both Gen Al Burhan and Gen Dagalo had been invited to the summit.
