Drone Strikes in Sudan Kill Over 100 in Market Attack, Disrupt Power in Capital
Sudan's ongoing conflict between the military and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has intensified with drone strikes causing significant civilian casualties and infrastructure damage. A drone attack on a crowded market in Nyala, South Darfur, killed over 100 people and injured more than 110, including women and children, according to rights groups and medical sources. Separately, drone strikes on power stations disrupted electricity across Khartoum and eastern states, worsening humanitarian conditions. Both sides have increasingly used drones, raising concerns over civilian safety and essential service disruptions.
