We've just seen new pictures from the city of El Geneina, where violence is reported to have been particularly bad. 


The city in the region of Darfur in western Sudan is said to have suffered looting, and the torching of markets, aid warehouses and banks due to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and militias linked to the paramilitary group.


Pictures taken today acquired by the Getty photo agency show people walking among scattered objects in the city's market. 


Yesterday, the UN warned it was extremely worried about food supplies and the deteriorating situation across all of Darfur.
