Drones reshape Sudan battlefield
The article discusses the expansion of fighting in Sudan, as new areas become involved in the conflict, particularly in the capital Khartoum and the states of Nile River, Blue Nile, and Darfur. It highlights the extensive use of the Rapid Support Forces' drones to target regions far from the traditional front lines, with Sudanese defenses shooting down more than 40 drones in several cities, including Omdurman, Bahri, Atbara, and Damid. The article also reviews aerial attacks and drone bombings on the city of El Obeid, which resulted in two deaths and injuries to others, as well as depleting the city’s vital supplies. Widespread displacement zones, especially in Qaysan and East Darfur, are experiencing mass evacuations involving thousands of people due to ongoing clashes, which the authorities consider a war crime. Clashes are intensifying in Blue Nile State, with fighting continuing in Qaysan, a border town with Ethiopia, leading to the displacement of about 2,500 people. Reports indicate widespread attacks and ground assaults on Rapid Support Forces positions. Since April 2023, the country has been embroiled in an ongoing war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of millions, amid a growing dependence on drones in military operations.
