Mine collapses reported in Sudan

Reports indicate deadly mine shaft collapses in Sudan resulting in multiple casualties among miners. One report states that at least six artisanal miners died and dozens were injured after four shafts collapsed in the Red Sea region, while another source reports at least 10 deaths and 21 injuries from a gold mine collapse in northern Sudan. It remains unresolved whether the accounts describe separate incidents or offer conflicting details about the same event.
