Drone Attacks in Sudan Kill Over 100 Amid Ongoing Military-RSF Conflict
Drone attacks in Sudan have killed over 100 people, including children, in recent days amid ongoing conflict between the Sudanese military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). A strike near Khartoum's airport killed three children, while attacks in West Kordofan and South Darfur targeted markets and residential areas, causing numerous civilian casualties. Both sides have blamed each other for the strikes, with rights groups condemning the attacks as violations of international humanitarian law. The conflict began in April 2023 and has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths.
