In response to a latest U.N. report, the navy has been finishing up airstrikes to repel advances by the R.S.F., leading to excessive loss of life tolls and a worsening humanitarian scenario that’s sending refugees fleeing to distant components of the border. A bomb from one in every of these airstrikes hit Isah 10 months in the past, shortly after paramilitary troops infiltrated the market.
