A fight to the death is currently under way in the besieged and embattled city of Al Fashir.

Residents of the regional capital of North Darfur are mourning more than 70 people killed in a single drone strike by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on a mosque during Friday dawn prayers.

It has shaken the spirit of the entire state - it was a serious violation of the rules of war.

"We buried them inside the mosque in a mass grave," says Mohamed Hassan Quba of Al Fashir's revolutionary resistance committee, providing a lifeline for civilians.

"An RSF strategic drone monitored us as we worked to bury them - we knew it could be a double strike, but refused to stop. We persisted and they were buried with great sadness.

"Drones have not left the sky of Al Fashir over the last 72 hours."
