The area of Lagawa in West Kordofan is witnessing a relative calm after 21 people were killed in an armed inter-communal clash in the Um Khashmin in Ghubeish last week.
At least 22 villagers have died of Covid-like symptoms at the small Nindura village in Gonda of Uttar Pradesh. Locals say once the migrant workers started returning home due to the lockdown, Covid spread became uncontrolled in the village.
