At least seven killed, 20 injured in bombings in South Sudan: MSF

At least seven people were killed and 20 injured and the last remaining hospital and pharmacy in the country's Fangak county were destroyed in bombings, medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) said Saturday.

MSF said a bomb was dropped on the pharmacy, burning it to the ground and damaging the hospital, followed by another drone bomb on Old Fangak, a town in the Greater Upper Nile region, where at least seven people were killed.

"Old Fangak Hospital is the only hospital in Fangak county, serving a population of over 110,000 people who already had extremely limited access to healthcare," MSF said in a statement.

It was not immediately clear who carried out the attack or what the motive was.

Government and army spokespeople could not immediately be reached for comment.
