Dozens killed in Darfur violence

Clashes in a refugee camp in Sudan’s violent Darfur region left six people dead, peacekeepers said, days after violence elsewhere in the area claimed the lives of at least 37 people.

Spokesman for the UNAMID mission, Chris Cycmanick, said the fighting took place in the Hamidia refugee camp in West Darfur on Friday night and continued intermittently through to Saturday morning.
