Drone warfare in Sudan has significantly escalated, resulting in mass civilian casualties and widespread targeting of critical infrastructure. Multiple drone strikes on markets in Darfur and Nyala have reportedly killed over 100 civilians in separate incidents, with conflicting attributions to the Sudanese Army (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Concurrently, RSF drones have conducted a sustained campaign against power stations and fuel facilities across at least five states, causing widespread outages and impacting army-controlled areas.
