The Sudanese Revolutionary Front said a warplane bombed on Thursday the house of its president and member of the Sovereignty Council Hadi Idris, as clashes took place with heavy weapons in the industrial zone of Khartoum.

"In a dangerous development, the house of Dr. Hadi Idris, a member of the Sovereignty Council and head of the Revolutionary Front, was targeted a short while ago in the suburb of Kafouri in Khartoum North, with aerial bombardment from a warplane belonging to the Sudanese Armed Forces," a statement by the Revolutionary Front said.

The front said the shelling destroyed large parts of the house and cars, "and thank God no one in the house was injured."

The Front condemned "this shelling, which targeted a residential house next to which there are no military sites."

The Front affirmed its "position rejecting the war and its continuation" and called on the parties to the conflict to arbitrate the voice of reason and the unconditional return to dialogue through the Jeddah platform, "as it is the only way to spare the country the risk of destruction and devastation."

Fierce battles

In addition, clashes with heavy weapons were heard in the industrial zone of Khartoum.

Al Jazeera correspondent reported that battles are taking place with heavy weapons between the army and the Rapid Support in the industrial zone in the capital Khartoum and Al-Ghaba Street.

Warplanes flew throughout the day over Khartoum and Omdurman, coinciding with the sound of gunfire.

The axes of fighting between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces in the capital witnessed battles described as some of the heaviest since the outbreak of fighting between the two sides.

Earlier, there were conflicting statements about who controls the Yarmouk arms factory south of the capital.

The army and the RSF have been fighting since Tuesday evening to control the factory and nearby fuel depots, and an army source told Al Jazeera that its forces repelled an RSF attack on the Yarmouk factory on Wednesday morning.

Fires continue to break out at the oil and gas facility following yesterday's attack on the Yarmouk plant.

On Wednesday, heavy fire flared for the second time at sites near gas and fuel depots south of Khartoum.


Arson, killing and looting

In western Sudan, al-Bukhari Ahmed Abdullah, deputy head of the Sudanese coalition governing West Darfur state, said the death toll in recent weeks in El Geneina reached eight hundred and fifty, in addition to two thousand wounded, and the fighting led to the burning of hundreds of homes and markets.

What he called militias destroyed all resources, looted markets, dried up water resources, and disrupted the communications network, Bukhari said. The doctors' syndicate spoke of the harshest attack since the clashes erupted.

In a related context, the State of Kuwait condemned the storming and sabotage of the buildings of the embassies of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Palestine, China and Oman, in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum.

In a statement on Thursday, the Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed the State of Kuwait's categorical rejection of the continued exposure of the headquarters of accredited diplomatic missions and their buildings in the Republic of Sudan to acts of aggression and vandalism.

For its part, the General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation expressed its strong condemnation of the attack on the Saudi embassy in Khartoum.

Saudi Arabia announced on Wednesday that its embassy building in Sudan and its attachés were subjected to sabotage by some armed groups, stressing its complete rejection of all forms of violence and sabotage towards diplomatic missions and representations.
