RSF drone attacks in Sudan killed more than 160 people over recent days

Situation Overview

Rapid Support Forces drone attacks in Sudan have killed more than 160 people over the past several days, according to medical personnel and human rights organisations. In Khartoum, where the city had been relatively safe recently and drone strikes were less frequent, a drone attack attributed to the RSF killed three children. Khartoum is held by the government army, while the front line is described as far from the capital. No further confirmed details on additional strikes, locations, or follow-on actions were provided in the report.

Geopolitical Implications

1. 01

   The reported use of long-range drones by the RSF to strike Khartoum indicates a widening of the conflict’s operational footprint into the capital.

2. 02

   Urban civilian casualties increase pressure on security and humanitarian actors as the government army controls Khartoum while drone threats reach inside the city.
