In Sudan, five people were killed in a drone attack that hit a civilian vehicle on the outskirts of Khartoum. The attack was carried out by the country’s paramilitary group, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The vehicle was travelling from the White Nile province to Omdurman. The attack reflects continued targeting of civilians on public roads and in populated areas.

Khartoum has largely been spared attacks by the RSF since it was recaptured by the Sudanese Armed Forces last year, but the capital has recently seen sporadic strikes. The Rapid Support Forces, which have been at war with the Sudanese Army for over three years, did not immediately claim the attack.
