Sudan’s Army Conducts Air Strikes on Nyala

Drone attacks hit fuel market in city that serves as headquarters for RSF’s alternative government.

Sudan’s army targeted the RSF’s fuel market in Nyala, leading to significant fires and civilian casualties amid an intensified aerial campaign against the paramilitary group. RSF officials accused the military of deliberately harming civilians, while the RSF has been engaged in ongoing conflict across Darfur, claiming territorial advances. Sudan’s Prime Minister recently proposed a peace plan rejected by the RSF, amidst escalating tensions and international diplomatic efforts. The conflict, ongoing since April 2023, has resulted in over 100,000 deaths and millions displaced, marking a severe humanitarian crisis.
