Sudanese Foreign Ministry Condemns 'Blatant' Attack by RSF on Port Sudan Air Base

"The terrorist RSF militia launched suicide drones this morning [Sunday] targeting the Osman Digna Air Base in Port Sudan. The attack resulted in damage to several warehouses and civilian service facilities," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement issued on Monday.

Key statements from the ministry:

⦁ The attack reflects the RSF rebels' continued efforts to destabilize Sudan by targeting essential infrastructure and services;

⦁ It is a violation of international law and norms;

⦁ The ministry urged the international community to act urgently to stop the RSF and its regional backers from supplying weapons, funding, and planning for further attacks.

Anti-aircraft gunners managed to shoot down several RSF drones. Damage was 'limited,' and no one was injured, according to the Sudanese Armed Forces spokesman.
