NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — The aid group Doctors Without Borders says an aerial bombing run over a Sudanese village hit one of its medical facilities, partially destroying a hospital.

The group said Tuesday the bombing run in the southern Sudanese region of South Kordofana occurred Monday. The group said five people from the village and one Doctors Without Borders staffer were wounded.

The group’s head of mission, Brian Moller, said the group is shocked that its medical facility was hit, especially since it is clearly identified with a flag and a cross on the roof. He said Khartoum’s government knows where the hospital is.

Residents in the region say the Khartoum government has increased bombing runs in recent weeks. Sudan’s military is fighting soldiers more ideologically aligned with South Sudan.
