    Fires used as weapon in Sudan conflict destroyed more towns in west than ever in April, study says

    Fires being used as a weapon in Sudan destroyed more villages and towns in the country's west in April than in any other month since the conflict began more than a year ago, an analysis by a U.K.-based rights group said Monday. Sudan Witness, an open-source project run by the nonprofit Center for Information Resilience, said 72 villages and settlements were either destroyed or damaged by fires last month, bringing the total number of settlements hit by fire in Sudan to 201 since the conflict began in mid-April of last year. “We’ve documented the patterns of numerous fires and the continuing devastation to settlements around western Sudan, large and small, since the conflict broke out last April," Anouk Theunissen, Sudan Witness project director, said in a news release Monday.
