  "account": "On Friday, a drone strike by Sudan's Rapid Support Forces struck a group of displaced individuals near the border with Ethiopia, resulting in 41 fatalities, according to a rights group. Among the victims were eight children and numerous women, Emergency Lawyers reported. The strike took place in the Abu Shandi area of Sudan's Blue Nile province. The RSF declined to comment on the matter. The U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs expressed shock at the incident and called for accountability in light of the ongoing war in Sudan. The conflict, which began in April 2023, has claimed at least 59,000 lives and displaced more than 12.4 million people, constituting the world's largest humanitarian crisis.",
