  "account": "At least five individuals, including a child, lost their lives and several others sustained injuries following an attack by a Sudanese rebel group in the South Kordofan province, according to the Sudan Doctors Network. The rebel group, the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N), is accused of launching an artillery assault on residential areas in the town of Dilling. The medical organization stated that the heavy bombardment of civilian areas constitutes a clear violation of international humanitarian law, leading to civilian casualties and exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation. The Sudan Doctors Network urged the international community to take immediate action to stop these violations and put pressure on the SPLM-N leadership to halt attacks on civilians and residential areas. The SPLM-N is a breakaway faction of the ruling party in neighboring South Sudan, led by Abdel Aziz al-Hilu. Al-Hilu has aligned his fighters with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and united with the RSF-led parallel government in Sudan.",
