ALBAWABA - A Sudanese boy shared a video on social media decrying ongoing violence in Sudan between the military and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
In the clip, the teenage boy cried in pain as he complained about the deadly clashes in the African country where he lost many of his friends in the past few days.

"Can you people see all the destruction in Sudan?" he asked. He maintained that the Sudanese people didn't want this violence and that they don't deserve it.
The boy said that many of his friends died in the clashes, while he took shelter in an abandoned house located under the crossfire between the warring parties, which has barred him from reaching his home.

Violence erupted in the capital city Khartoum between the Sudanese army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the RSF, which is led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, also known as Hemedti on April 15.
According to the United Nations, about 185 people were killed and more than 1,800 were injured in three days of fighting in Sudan.
G7 foreign ministers called on the warring parties in Sudan on Tuesday to "end hostilities immediately" and asked for a ceasefire deal and a return to the negotiating table.
