In Sudan, a drone attack believed to be orchestrated by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) led by General Hamdan Daglo took place at dawn on February 6. This assault struck a humanitarian convoy operated by the World Food Programme (WFP) in the North Kordofan state, an area that has become a new frontline in the ongoing conflict involving the Sudanese army and paramilitary forces. Reports indicate there was one fatality and several others wounded, as confirmed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

The convoy, primarily transporting food aid, originated from Kosti in the Nile state and was part of the ongoing efforts to deliver necessary supplies to affected populations. This incident underscores the escalating violence and unrest in various regions of Sudan, where humanitarian missions are increasingly jeopardized by conflict. The attack not only highlights the dangerous environment for aid workers but also raises concerns over the continuity of humanitarian support for millions facing food insecurity amid the ongoing war.

The situation in Sudan has been deteriorating for nearly three years, highlighting the dire consequences of prolonged warfare on both civilians and humanitarian operations. With the RSF's increasing aggression, the international community remains apprehensive about the escalation of violence, calling for heightened protection for humanitarian convoys and accountability for the attacks on aid efforts. As Sudan continues to grapple with these challenges, the plight of its citizens remains a pressing concern for both local and global actors invested in humanitarian intervention and peace efforts.
