KHARTOUM: Multiple paramilitary drones attacked key army positions and civilian infrastructure in Sudan鈥檚 south on Sunday, an army official told AFP, just a week after similar strikes hit the capital.
Since April 2023, Sudan has been gripped by a brutal war between the regular armed forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), killing tens of thousands and displacing millions.
Sunday鈥檚 strikes targeted the headquarters of the Sudanese army鈥檚 18th Division, along with fuel depots on the western bank of the Nile, east of the army-held city of Kosti in White Nile state, the official said.
Additional attacks hit the Kenana air base and airport, located southeast of Kosti, while drones also struck the Um Dabakir power station, east of the city, the official added on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to speak to the media.
Eyewitnesses in Kosti, located some 320 kilometers (200 miles) south of Khartoum, reported extremely loud explosions during the attacks.
There has been no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks and the extent of the damage remains unclear.
An army spokesman separately said that a number of paramilitary drones targeted early Saturday facilities in El-Obeid, the capital of North Kordofan state.
Army air defenses intercepted the drones on El-Obeid, located about 400 kilometers (about 250 miles) southwest of Khartoum, the spokesman said, adding that no casualties were reported.
The army did not specify which facilities were targeted.
The attacks come days after a wave of RSF drone strikes targeted key infrastructure and army installations in and around Khartoum, including a power station, an oil refinery, a weapons factory and an air base.
The RSF鈥檚 Tasis administration, which has declared itself the governing authority in paramilitary-held areas, later claimed responsibility, describing them as 鈥減recise and successful air strikes.鈥�
Following the army鈥檚 recapture of the capital in March, the RSF has increasingly used drones to attack army-controlled areas, often targeting critical infrastructure and causing widespread power outages affecting millions.
Efforts to broker a ceasefire between warring parties have so far failed.
On Saturday, Sudan鈥檚 army-aligned government pushed back against a new peace proposal from four influential foreign powers 鈥� the United States, 黑料社区, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt.
The proposal called for a humanitarian truce, followed by a permanent ceasefire and a transition toward civilian rule.
The four nations also suggested that no warring party should be included in the post-war transition 鈥� a proposal swiftly rejected by the government.
Sudan鈥檚 current state institutions remain under army control.
The conflict has effectively split the country, with the army holding the north, east and center, while the RSF dominates parts of the south and nearly all of the western Darfur region.
