A drone strike in Sudan has resulted in the deaths of at least 24 individuals who were displaced and traveling in a vehicle. The attack occurred while they were fleeing ongoing clashes in the area of Dubeiker, highlighting the exacerbating humanitarian crisis in the region. The Sudan Doctors Network reported the incident, asserting that the paramilitary group RSF (Rapid Support Forces) was responsible for the strike, though RSF has not yet commented on the claims.

The RSF has been engaged in conflict with Sudanese government forces for around three years, and the organization has faced accusations of multiple war crimes during this period. This recent incident underscores the dangers faced by civilians and displaced populations in conflict zones, as fighting continues to escalate in various parts of Sudan. The lack of accountability for such attacks raises concerns about the protection of human rights and the safety of non-combatants in the ongoing conflict.

As the situation in Sudan deteriorates, international attention is drawn towards the urgent need for humanitarian assistance and a comprehensive resolution to the ongoing violence. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the human cost of conflict, particularly for vulnerable populations such as refugees and internally displaced persons who are often caught in the crossfire of military engagements.
