SAF air strike kills 3 in Blue Nile says SPLA

Air strikes carried out by SAF (Sudanese Air Forces) in several places in the Blue Nile state led to the killing and injuring of approximately 14 people. Arnau Nugutulu Lodi, SPLM spokesperson, said that an Antonov dropped 37 bombs on the villages of Mogof, Wadaka, Bileila and Anneli resulted in the death of three people and injured another eleven in addition to the loss of 30 cattle.

Arno stated that the intention of the ruling regime in Khartoum is to increase the suffering of the citizens of the Blue Nile and South Kordofan and divert attention from the talks about the agreement which will lead the delivery of humanitarian aid to the states of Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile.
