On Wednesday afternoon, a government warplane bombed a leading primary school in Kauda, Sudan, wounding a Kenyan teacher. The Sudan Sukhoi jet dropped two parachute bombs into the compound of the St. Vincent Primary School, damaging classrooms and library. Sponsored by Catholic churches in the US, several international staff from East Africa and Australia work at the school. “We just thank God that the children were not in the primary school because these metal pieces would have probably killed them,” Australian Education Coordinator Cathy Solano said. The Sudan government continues to target children in the ongoing conflict in the Nuba Mountains.
