Sudanese military air defense units successfully intercepted and destroyed several suicide drones launched by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The drones were targeting locations within Khartoum and the River Nile state. This escalation follows a series of drone-based attacks by the RSF as they attempt to strike government-held infrastructure. No immediate casualties were reported from the interceptions, though the threat level in the capital region remains critical.
