Drone attack by paramilitary group in Sudan kills 24, including 8 children, doctors’ group says

At least 24 displaced civilians, including eight children, were killed in a drone strike by the Rapid Support Forces amid ongoing conflict and humanitarian aid disruptions.

  • A drone attack by the Rapid Support Forces struck a vehicle carrying displaced families in central Sudan, killing at least 24 people.
  • The conflict began in April 2023 when a power struggle between the military and the RSF exploded into open fighting, with RSF fighting ongoing for about three years.
  • The Sudan Doctors Network said the vehicle carried families who fled fighting in the Dubeiker area, killing eight children, including two infants.
  • Calling for accountability, the doctors' group urged the international community and rights organizations to `take immediate action to protect civilians and hold the RSF leadership directly accountable for these violations` after documenting the strike that killed 24, including two infants, in North Kordofan.
  • The war has created the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, forcing over 14 million people from their homes and causing disease outbreaks and famine, with more than 40,000 killed, U.N. figures show.
