RSF Launches Widespread Drone Attacks Targeting Five Major Sudanese Cities
In a significant escalation of aerial warfare, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched a series of coordinated drone attacks targeting five major cities across Sudan, including the capital, Khartoum. The strikes targeted military installations and government-controlled infrastructure. The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) reported intercepting several drones over al-Obeid. This widespread operation indicates a shift in RSF tactics, utilizing unmanned systems to strike deep into SAF-held territory and disrupt urban centers previously considered relatively secure from direct ground assault.
