On Sunday, May 4, the Sudan-based rebel group Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched suicide drones targeting Osman Digna Air Base, a military airport in Port Sudan, which has been operating as the de facto capital of the war-torn country.

This marks the first time that attacks by the militia have reached the city since the war broke out two years ago.

Although no casualties were reported, the attack resulted in damage to several warehouses and civilian service facilities.

It, however, came just two days after a similar terrorist airstrike was launched targeting facilities in the city of Kassala.
