Sudans ElObeid Under Drone Pressure Fears El Fasher Fate
Only hours after the United Nations and several Western countries urged the Rapid Support Forces to halt its assault on el-Obeid, the capital of North Kordofan state, it was plunged into darkness. A drone strike hit the city’s main power station, marking the latest in a wave of attacks that have battered el-Obeid for days. Local sources said a strategic drone belonging to the RSF struck the electricity substation late on Thursday, cutting power across the city. By Friday morning, strikes had resumed on other sites inside al-Obeid.
