UN convoy in Sudan targeted amid calls for probe
A World Food Programme convoy in South Kordofan was subjected to an airstrike by a drone operated by the Sudanese Army, resulting in injuries to drivers and the destruction of over 50 tons of food supplies that could have sufficed for approximately 5,800 people for a month. The attack targeted two trucks clearly marked with humanitarian aid, despite prior notifications to all involved parties about the convoy’s route. This assault appears aimed at escalating violence and disrupting humanitarian operations in Sudan, amid international calls for an investigation and the prosecution of those responsible for targeting aid efforts. The conflict between the army and the Rapid Support Forces has been ongoing since April 2023, with far-reaching impacts on millions of Sudanese civilians.
