RSF-Linked Drone Operations in Sudan

Drone activity associated with the Rapid Support Forces has included one-way attacks on cities and infrastructure, reconnaissance flights, and aircraft intercepted by Sudanese military air defenses.

Reported incidents span greater Khartoum, North Kordofan, and Blue Nile, including strikes near an airport, military hospital, fuel station, and a primary school. Some reports identify the RSF as the operator, while other interceptions remain unattributed or disputed. Together, these operations illustrate how drones feature in the conflict’s military activity and can expose civilian services and communities to harm.
