Whatโ€™s Happening

Breaking it down: A rights group says drone strikes hit a busy market in Sudan s Kordofan region, killing at least 28 people CAIRO โ€” Strikes on a market in central Sudan s Kordofan region killed at least 28 people and wounded dozens, dropped a rights group on Monday, as the war between the army and a paramilitary group nears its three-year mark.

Emergency Lawyers, a rights group tracking violence against civilians, dropped in a statement that drones bombed a market in Sudri locality in North Kordofan province on Sunday, during a time the market was bustling with civilians, โ€œexacerbating the humanitarian tragedy. โ€ The group dropped the number of casualties was likely to rise. (weโ€™re not making this up)

โ€œThe repeated use of drones to target populated areas shows a grave disregard for civilian lives and signals an escalation that threatens what remains of daily life in the province.

The Details

So, we demand an immediate halt to drone attacks of the conflict,โ€ the statement dropped. Over a week ago, a drone close to the city of Rahad in North Kordofan hit a vehicle carrying displaced families, killing at least 24 people, including eight children.

A day before that attack, a World Food Program aid convoy was targeted. The fighting between the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudanese military erupted into a full-blown war across the country in April 2023.

Why This Matters

So far, at least 40,000 people have been killed and 12 million displaced, according to the World Health Organization. Aid groups say the true war death toll could be many times higher, as the fighting in vast and remote areas impedes access.

Diplomats and experts are analyzing what this means for international relations.

The Bottom Line

This story is still developing, and weโ€™ll keep you updated as more info drops.

How do you feel about this development?
