Drone Strike on Family Home Kills 10 in Sudan's El Obeid

A drone strike hit a family home in the Sudanese city of El Obeid on Monday evening, killing at least 10 civilians. Eyewitnesses report that nine of the dead were members of the same family. Women and children were among the victims. Several neighbors were also wounded in the attack. The strike is blamed on the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The RSF has not commented on the incident. The attack marks a serious escalation in Sudan's civil war. It is a rare major assault in North Kordofan state, which had seen less fighting than other regions. The war is primarily between the RSF and the Sudanese Armed Forces. It has caused a severe humanitarian crisis across the country.
