Sudan: WHO Condemns Airstrikes That Killed 114, Including 63 Children. Khartoum, Sudan — December 8, 2025 The World Health Organization (WHO) has strongly condemned a series of deadly airstrikes in Sudan’s South Kordofan State that resulted in the tragic deaths of 114 people, including 63 children.
The attacks, which occurred on December 4, targeted a kindergarten and the nearby Kalogi Rural Hospital, according to the WHO’s Attacks on Health Care monitoring system.
WHO Director — General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus expressed his deep concern over the incident, stating that the Kalogi hospital was struck at least three times. Survivors of the attack were transported to Abu Jebaiha Hospital for treatment, where medical teams urgently appealed for blood donations and additional supplies.
Tedros also highlighted reports that paramedics and first responders were attacked while attempting to move injured children from the kindergarten to the hospital.
He described the strikes as “senseless attacks on civilians and health facilities” and called for an immediate halt to the conflict. “The Sudanese have suffered far too much.
Ceasefire now,” Tedros emphasized, urging all sides to guarantee humanitarian access and allow lifesaving medical aid into affected areas.
The incident has drawn international attention, with the Arab League also condemning the deadly drone strike in Sudan’s South Kordofan.
According to reports, the situation remains critical, and further details are expected as the investigation into the airstrike continues. Verified Sources: 1.
