A drone attack near a market and transport hub in al-Dibab in Sudan’s West Kordofan state kills at least 80 people, according to witnesses and medical sources. Reports say the strike happened on Sunday evening and hit areas where commuters were gathered, including people preparing to travel home.

Witnesses describe multiple impacts and large numbers of casualties at the scene. One witness says they helped bury dozens of bodies, including a brother. The attack is described by outlets as among the deadliest single incidents during the ongoing conflict that began in 2023, when fighting between Sudan’s army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces escalates across parts of the country.

While details on responsibility are not provided in the cited accounts, the reports consistently place the incident in the same location and timeframe and emphasize the high death toll and its concentration among ordinary commuters at a public hub.
