Drones Attack Sudanese Capital and Northern Cities, Reigniting Conflict

Drones attacked Sudan's capital Khartoum and two northern cities at dawn on Wednesday, marking a coordinated strike after months of relative calm. An AFP correspondent and witnesses reported drone activity and anti-aircraft missile sounds near the army's Wadi Seidna base. This development signals a potential escalation in the conflict between the Sudanese military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, which has ravaged the country since April 2023.
