Sudan capital hit by drone attacks a day after RSF agrees to truce – reports
The capital city of Sudan, Khartoum, was reportedly hit by drone attacks just a day after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) agreed to a truce with rebel groups in the region. The drone attacks targeted strategic locations in the city, causing panic among the residents and raising concerns about the fragile peace agreement.
According to eyewitnesses, the drone attacks occurred in the early hours of the morning, with explosions heard in several parts of Khartoum. The Sudanese government has not yet officially commented on the incident, and it remains unclear who was behind the attacks.
The RSF, a paramilitary group allied with the Sudanese government, had recently reached a truce with rebel forces in the Darfur, Blue Nile, and South Kordofan regions in an effort to end years of conflict. The agreement was seen as a significant step towards peace in the war-torn country.
While no group has claimed responsibility for the drone attacks, the incident has raised suspicions about possible sabotage by those opposed to the peace agreement. The situation remains tense as security forces are on high alert, and investigations are underway to identify the perpetrators.
The drone attacks in Khartoum come at a critical time for Sudan as the country attempts to transition to a more stable and peaceful future. The international community has condemned the attacks and urged all parties to uphold the ceasefire to prevent a further escalation of violence in the region.
