Aid Convoy Attacked in Sudan, Leaving Five Dead
In Sudan, where there is a lot of fighting, an aid convoy bringing food to hungry families was attacked.
Sadly, five people helping with the aid were killed.
The attack happened at night, and some trucks were burned, damaging the food and supplies.
The United Nations is very upset and wants to know who did it.
Both sides in the war, the army and another group called the RSF, are blaming each other for the attack.
This makes it even harder for people to get the food they desperately need.
An aid convoy in Sudan was attacked, resulting in five deaths.
The attack occurred near Koma in North Darfur, a town controlled by the RSF.
Multiple trucks were burned, and humanitarian supplies were damaged in the attack.
