Ten Killed in Drone Strike in Sudan, Including Seven Children

A drone strike in El Obeid, Sudan, has resulted in the deaths of ten people, including seven children. Medical sources report that the strike hit a house in the city, which is under the control of the Sudanese army and besieged by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). This attack comes amid the ongoing war between the army and the RSF, which has caused a massive humanitarian crisis in Sudan. Furthermore, the power supply to the area has been cut off due to a previous attack on a power station. Over 11,000 people have been displaced from South and North Kordofan states due to the escalating violence.
