🇸🇩 Drone strike in Sudan's Blue Nile region kills 41 near Ethiopian border

A drone attack attributed to Sudan's Rapid Support Forces killed 41 people at a camp for displaced people in Abu Shandi in Blue Nile state on Friday, according to the rights group Emergency Lawyers. The strike took place near the border with Ethiopia, and the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs said initial reports indicated most of the casualties were women and children.

Ocha said it was appalled by the reports and that the area had been under sustained attack in recent weeks, displacing thousands of civilians. Sudan's army and the RSF have been fighting since 2023 in a conflict that has killed hundreds of thousands and displaced more than 14 million people.
