# RSF launches largest drone attacks on Khartoum in months 2026-08-12T18:06:25+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces launched coordinated drone strikes on the capital Khartoum and other Army-controlled cities on Wednesday, in what appeared to be their largest attack in months. The RSF targeted airports, fuel depots and military bases in Atbara, Omdurman and the south, witnesses and an AFP correspondent said. Two drones hit a mosque and an electricity transformer in Khartoum North. No casualties were immediately reported. The war between Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and his former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Daglo has killed over 200,000 people since April 2023, the UN says. In a separate incident, the Emergency Lawyers group reported an Army retaliatory attack that killed at least five civilians in North Kordofan. The RSF had been pushed off a key highway last month, and Daglo had threatened a large-scale response. ## Coverage - thehindu.com Tags: civil war, drone strikes, Khartoum, paramilitary, RSF, Sudan Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/rsf-launches-largest-drone-attacks-on-khartoum-in-months/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
