Drones targeted the Sudanese capital Khartoum on Thursday as paramilitary forces launched ground attacks in central Sudan and in the southeast near the Ethiopian border, sources from both sides reported.

Since April 2023, Sudan has been ravaged by a war between the Sudanese military, led by its chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, commanded by Burhan's former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.

Drones and anti-aircraft missiles were seen by AFP correspondents over Khartoum on Thursday for the second day in a row, as army and paramilitary sources reported RSF attacks across the country.
