CAIRO, June 23 (Reuters) - Sudan's two-month long war is extending across the country with the army and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) clashing in several areas on Friday.
Air strikes and anti-aircraft missile fire hit overnight in the Omdurman and Khartoum, two of the three cities that make up Sudan's wider capital.
The West Darfur city of El Geneina has been worst hit by repeated militia attacks.
In recent days, fighting had also picked up between the army and RSF in Nyala, capital of South Darfur and one of Sudan's largest cities.
A new front in the fighting is also threatening to open in South Kordofan, where the rebel SPLM-N controls some areas.
