U.N. Warns Sudan Could Plunge into "Full-Scale Civil War" as Airstrikes Kill Dozens
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Sudan, nearly two dozen people were killed Saturday in military
airstrikes on a residential area of Omdurman, Sudan's most populous
city. It was one of the deadliest attacks in an urban area since
fighting erupted in April between the Sudanese army and the Rapid
Support Forces. At least 17 other people, including five children, were
killed in an army air raid in Khartoum last month. The U.N. has warned
Sudan is on the brink of a "full-scale civil war" as Egypt is hosting
talks in Cairo this week on how to end the violence.
