The European Union’s Ambassador in Sudan has been assaulted in his home in Khartoum.

This is on the back of Sudan experiencing another day of fighting between the army and a paramilitary group called the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

Dozens of civilians have been killed and hundreds more have been injured.

The pitched battles across Sudan pitting government troops against the paramilitary outfit as the RSF, is continuing the threat of a wider civil war.

Scores of civilians have been killed and hundreds injured, according to a doctors’ union.

And on the streets of the city, civilians are describing scenes of chaos as they struggle to source even basic necessities such as water, or medicine.

The U.N. World Food Programme says it’s been forced to halt operations in several areas and three employees were killed.

RSF soldiers have destroyed the Sudanese army at the airport – who they call “mercenaries,” including its leaders.

Both sides say they’ve made gains against the other.

The RSF is a former militia that was due to merge with the army and whose leaders shared power ruling the country in a military council.

Both were due to release their power as the country transitioned toward a civilian democracy.

Friction over the integration brewed for months, but it’s not clear who shot first. The RSF says the army tried to seize full control in a plot.

The army accuses the RSF of mobilising its forces, illegally, and moving on strategic sites.

Violence erupts in The Hague as police clash with anti-migration protesters, leading to arrests and injuries ahead of elections.

Violence broke out in The Hague as Dutch police deployed tear gas and water cannons to disperse thousands of anti migration demonstrators. The protest, organised by a right wing activist just weeks before a national election, turned chaotic with thirty people arrested and two officers injured.

Protesters waved Dutch flags and far right symbols while clashing with authorities, throwing rocks and bottles. A police car was set alight, a highway was blocked, and the headquarters of the centre left D66 party was vandalised, with its leader condemning the destruction as an attack on democracy.

Far right leader Geert Wilders, who currently leads in opinion polls, condemned the violence despite being invited to attend.
