A network of volunteer rescuers said Sunday that Sudan’s army carried out an air strike a day earlier on a marketplace in Khartoum, leaving 23 people dead. The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces have been fighting the military as part of a civil war. In Switzerland, the head of the U.N. refugee agency Filippo Grandi warned Monday that displacement crises in Lebanon and Sudan could worsen but said tighter border measures were not the solution, calling them ineffective and sometimes unlawful. Grandi said an unprecedented 123 million people are now displaced around the world. These, and more Africa-related news updates on today’s VOA 60.
