UN, US condemn RSF drone strikes on aid deliveries in famine-hit Sudan

Al Jazeera

Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have launched a series of drone attacks targeting humanitarian aid convoys and fuel trucks across North Kordofan, killing at least one person and wounding several others, officials and medical organisations said. The North Kordofan state government condemned Friday's strikes on a convoy linked to the World Food Programme (WFP), urging the international community and United Nations bodies to impose sanctions on the RSF paramilitary group's leadership. The attacks occurred along the key road connecting the state capital, el-Obeid, with Kosti in neighbouring White Nile state. Fighting between the government-aligned Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the RSF has intensified across the Kordofan region since October 2025 after el-Fasher fell to the RSF, where the group committed atrocities - a "crime scene" according to the UN. According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the first strike at dawn hit three trucks in Er-Rahad.

Sudanese refugee children watch the sunset in the Tine transit camp amid the conflict between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Army, in eastern Chad on Nov. 23. Port Sudan, Sudan - A recent paramilitary drone attack on the army-held town of Kalogi in Sudan's South Kordofan state hit a kindergarten and a hospital, killing dozens of civilians including children, a local official said Sunday. The attack, which took place on Thursday, involved three strikes, first a kindergarten, then a hospital and a third time as people tried to rescue the children, Essam al-Din al-Sayed, head of the Kalogi administrative unit, said using a Starlink satellite internet connection. He blamed the assault on the Rapid Support Forces and their ally, the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-North faction (SPLM-N) led by Abdelaziz al-Hilu, which controls much of South Kordofan and parts of Blue Nile state.
