According to the Sudanese army, at least 41 persons have died as a result of bombardment in El Fasher.
It is the only major town in the Darfur region still under government control in their conflict with the RSF paramilitaries.
El Fasher has been under siege since last May, with the possibility of a horrific cost in civilian lives if it falls.
The humanitarian situation is already dire, and tensions have risen this week.
The number of women killed by their spouses in Guinea in a single week has brought the severity of the femicide issue into sharp focus.
Some survivors have decided to take the chance of speaking out in response to the wave of violence.
Finally, in South Africa, work has started to build 86 houses for families who were forcibly removed from their homes under apartheid.
In a historic case, claimants filed a land restitution application in 1995, following the fall of the apartheid dictatorship.
The request was authorised in 2006, but it took nearly 20 years to buy the site.
