AT LEAST 54 people have been killed in an air strike on a local market in western Sudan, aid groups said on Tuesday.

The strike against the village of Tora on Monday caused a huge fire, according to Adam Rejal, a spokesman for the General Co-ordination, a local group helping displaced people in Darfur.

Sudanese military spokesman Brigadier General Nabil Abdullah said civilians had not been targeted, adding the allegations were “incorrect” and “are raised whenever our forces exercise their constitutional and legal right to deal with hostile targets.”
