Multiple reports say drone strikes in Sudan kill at least 20 people, according to human rights groups. The attacks are described as targeting civilian vehicles heading toward social gatherings. ABC News and the Winnipeg Free Press report that the strikes occurred over the course of the week and resulted in more than 20 deaths, citing rights organizations. The Hindu adds that the group assessing the incident says the attack is deliberate and carried out using a guided drone. The reporting also includes a call by rights groups for international pressure on RSF leadership, aimed at stopping attacks on civilians. While the sources agree on the reported death toll and the targeting of civilian vehicles, they do not provide additional verified details in the excerpts about the specific location, the full circumstances of each strike, or whether any weapons or parties involved can be independently confirmed beyond the rights groups’ account. The reports present the incidents as part of an ongoing pattern of violence affecting civilians in Sudan.
