Shelling struck Bahri and air strikes hit Omdurman early on Sunday, according to a Reuters reporter and witnesses. "There were heavy air strikes near us in Saliha that shook the doors of the house," said Salma Yassin, a teacher in Omdurman. A resident near Khartoum airport, which has been closed since the start of the conflict, said there had been intermittent fighting throughout the day. The house became unsafe and we don't have enough money to travel out of Khartoum. The fire destroyed supplies to treat some 14,500 children as well as the factory's machinery, children's agency UNICEF said.
