The fire occurred after the ICRC convoy "violated an agreement with the Sudanese army by approaching our defensive positions accompanied by an armed vehicle belonging to the rebels," Xinhua reported citing the statement published by SAF's spokesman.
Meanwhile, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on Sunday accused the SAF of attacking the ICRC convoy, which, according to a statement by the RSF, has killed two people and injured another.
Sudan has been witnessing deadly clashes between the SAF and the RSF in Khartoum and other areas since April 15.
More than 12,000 people have been killed so far in the clashes, while 6.6 million others have been displaced inside and outside Sudan, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
