Chad places military on high alert following Sudanese airstrikes in Ennedi
The Chadian government has raised its military alert level to the highest point after Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) conducted air and drone strikes inside Chadian territory last week. The strikes targeted a military convoy in the eastern Ennedi region, which Sudan alleges was part of a UAE-led supply line for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The US envoy for Sudan condemned the violation of Chadian sovereignty on August 27, warning of regional destabilization.
