{{Fighting between rival Arab tribes has rocked Sudan’s Darfur region for a second day, after 100 people were reported killed in unrest that has already left hundreds dead this year.}}<\/p>\n
Battles were taking place in the Adila area of southeastern Darfur on Sunday, the sources said.<\/p>\n
“The fighting today spread to many areas,” said a member of the Rezeigat tribe. “I saw some wounded Rezeigat taken to the hospital in Ed Daein on Land Cruisers.”<\/p>\n
A Maaliya resident confirmed the fighting south of Adila, and a doctor in Nyala city to the west told AFP news agency that some wounded Maaliya had been taken there for treatment.<\/p>\n
“We clashed with Maaliya… and we destroyed a compound of theirs and killed 70 of them,” another Rezeigat source said, declining to be named.<\/p>\n
They were not able to give casualty figures for Sunday’s fighting but tribal sources said dozens had died on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Inter-ethnic fighting has been the major source of violence in Darfur this year, where an estimated 300,000 people were displaced in the first five months alone, according to African Union-UN peacekeeping mission in Darfur (UNAMID).<\/p>\n
Prior to this year’s surge of violence, there were already 1.4 million people in camps for those uprooted by the conflict in Darfur.<\/p>\n
