A drone attack by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has killed dozens of people in Dilling, a strategic town in Sudan’s South Kordofan state. The assault targeted several areas including the central market and military headquarters, occurring just one day after the Sudanese army announced it had broken a nearly two-year-long RSF siege on the town. This escalation has intensified an already dire humanitarian crisis, with local medical networks reporting a critical shortage of life-saving supplies and food. The ongoing civil war between the RSF and the Sudanese Armed Forces has now displaced approximately 14 million people, creating what the UN describes as the world’s largest hunger crisis.
