According to eye-witnesses, the recent aerial attacks in East Jebel Marra, North Darfur, were not executed by an Antonov airplane but by a Sukhoi fighter jet.<\/p>\n

They explained that a Sukhoi carries highly explosive and toxic weapons, which they believe are internationally banned.<\/p>\n

Radio Dabanga reported<\/a> about the shelling on Wednesday, 3 October.<\/p>\n

Eye-witnesses reported that the recent bombs injured several farmers, who are now suffering of diarrhea, neck and limbs swelling and rashes.<\/p>\n

In addition, they claim to have visited the site where the bombings took place and said they were shocked to find parts of animals’ bodies scattered around.<\/p>\n

The population of East Jebel Marra appealed to human rights’ organizations and to the UN to send a fact-finding mission to the area and investigate the poisoning amongst residents.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, sources told Radio Dabanga that a woman died of a heart attack after seeing the bodies of her husband and three children, killed as a result of Wednesday’s shelling in the area.<\/p>\n
