(Reuters) -The last functioning hospital in the Sudanese city of al-Fashir was raided and hundreds are feared to have been killed there after a paramilitary force overran the city this week, the World Health Organization and a Sudanese official said.

Reuters could not immediately verify the deaths, as communications inside the city are cut off and doctors from the hospital have been offline since the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces seized the Sudanese army’s last stronghold in the city on Sunday.

It was unclear when exactly the raid, which the Sudanese official as well as doctors and activists blamed on the RSF, took place. The RSF dismissed the reports as disinformation, saying in a statement that all al-Fashir’s hospitals had been abandoned.
