A drone attack struck an area near Khartoum’s international airport on Tuesday, just a day before the facility was scheduled to resume domestic flights for the first time since the outbreak of war in 2023.

Sudan’s capital, Khartoum, was hit by drone attacks early Wednesday, according to eyewitnesses and a military source.

At least seven people lost their lives and several others were injured on Tuesday after drone attacks struck neighborhoods in Khartoum, the Sudanese capital, as well as a city in northern Sudan, eyewitnesses said.
