Egypt's Foreign Ministry said a third Egyptian national sustained injuries in the shooting at a local market in Khartoum on Monday afternoon. The ministry said Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty had instructed the country's ambassador to contact Sudanese authorities, establish the circumstances of the incident and arrange the repatriation of the two bodies. Sudanese authorities arrested a 23-year-old suspect carrying a Kalashnikov rifle, according to sources close to the police.
This follows a similar probe conducted in the wake of a reported attack by Egyptian forces earlier this year on June 17 and 18. The investigation comes amid conflicting reports about the death toll, which Emergency Lawyers puts at least 72, and growing calls for transparency over the circumstances of the strikes. The Egyptian military said it was conducting what it described as the third phase of a campaign against illegal gold extraction in the Eastern Desert, involving armed forces and civilian police after warnings to those it described as criminal elements.
'UN warns of mounting civilian casualties' The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has expressed grave concern over continued airstrikes and drone attacks across Sudan, warning that civilians displaced by the war face renewed danger even in places where they sought refuge. OCHA reported that dozens of people were killed in Saturday's bombing of traditional gold mining sites near the Egyptian border. It also cited reports of at least four civilian deaths, including a woman and three children, in strikes on Kadugli, South Kordofan, on the same day.
