At least 82 people died in a gold mine collapse Wednesday at the al-Zara mine in West Kordofan province, Sudan, according to a source within the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The RSF controls the remote area where the collapse occurred.
Sudan has been engulfed in conflict between the RSF and the country's military for more than three years, complicating rescue and recovery efforts in areas under paramilitary control.
