What happened

Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched long-range drone strikes that hit Khartoum International Airport on 4 May, according to military sources cited by Sudan Tribune, as part of a wider attack that also targeted the Signal Corps vicinity in Khartoum Bahri and the Al-Markhiyat camp in northern Omdurman. Two of four missiles aimed at the airport struck its eastern section near Obeid Khatim Street, causing what sources described as minor damage to an administrative building attached to the airport. No casualty figures were available, and the extent of damage at the other two sites was not established in the reviewed reporting. The same military sources accused Ethiopia of facilitating the RSF's long-range drone capability, alleging the drones were launched from bases in Ethiopian territory, an allegation not independently confirmed here. This record adds Sudan's civil war as a further conflict dimension in the site's airbase/airport-strike coverage.
