In Sudan:

A grenade exploded during a wedding party in Sudan’s capital Monday, killing at least seven people, including three children, security and medical officials said.

The officials said the explosion also injured at least two dozen adults and children attending the party in the Shegla neighborhood in Khartoum’s al-Haj Youssef district.

A fight between two people at the party escalated into one of them throwing the grenade and causing the explosion, the Health Ministry said in a statement.

While such explosions are rare in Khartoum, the city has recently suffered from insecurity. Police found at least three people slain in unclear circumstances in different parts of the capital this month.
