International humanitarian group Médecins Sans Frontières has currently suspended its medical activities in the Nuba Mountains in Sudan after a hospital it runs was bombed this week.
An MSF staff member and a patient suffered injuries from the attack on the hospital in Frandala village in South Kordofan, where government troops and rebel forces are fighting. U.N. agencies and aid groups are still not allowed full access to the state, particularly in rebel-controlled territory.
MSF is aware of this, but argued the organization is there “with the consent of the local population and medical authorities in charge.”
