      A New Wave of Hostility

      Sudan is currently experiencing a troubling escalation of violence, marked by attacks on critical infrastructure using strategic drones equipped with guided missiles. This alarming trend signifies a significant shift in the nature of hostilities against the nation, with evidence pointing to support from neighboring countries and other foreign entities.

      Recent Drone Attacks: A Coordinated Assault

      According to the Sudanese Ministry of Defence, on November 24, 2024, at 23:00, the military airport in the Wadi Sidna military zone near the capital was targeted by guided missiles launched from drones. This attack was followed by additional strikes on November 26, 2024, at 03:00 AM, indicating a coordinated effort to undermine Sudan’s military capabilities. The General Intelligence Service has identified one missile with the serial number (VSAKT0250243BEF001) and is actively seeking information regarding the drones’ origins and the entities involved in their procurement.

      Rebel Militias: A Shift in Tactics

      The rebel militia has adapted its strategy by launching attacks from new locations in Kordofan, utilizing a new type of suicide drone. Recent assaults have targeted cities including Atbara, Shendi, Omdurman, and Merowe. Despite these efforts, the attacks have largely failed to achieve their objectives, thanks to effective ground defenses and jamming systems that have successfully neutralized many of the drones.

      Foreign Support: The Role of Chad and the UAE

      Intelligence reports indicate that neighboring countries, particularly Chad, are playing a significant role in supporting the rebel militias. Evidence suggests that strategic drones targeting Sudan were launched from airports in Chad. Notably, drones of types Aksungur and TAI Anka have been observed in military activities at N’Djamena airport, further implicating Chad in these aggressive actions. The involvement of foreign nations, including the UAE, raises serious concerns about the regional dynamics fueling the conflict.

      Qualitative Developments: A Dangerous Escalation

      In response to the failures of previous attacks, the militia, with backing from its foreign supporters, has intensified its use of suicide drones and introduced larger strategic drones capable of launching guided missiles. The first attacks using these advanced drones occurred on November 24, 2024, targeting Omdurman with six missiles, all launched from Chad. This escalation highlights a troubling trend in the sophistication and coordination of attacks against Sudan.

      Evidence and Investigations: Uncovering the Truth

      Specialized teams from the Sudanese Armed Forces have examined the wreckage from the attacks, confirming that guided missiles carried by strategic drones were used. The serial numbers documented on missile bodies have been compared with known products from specific countries in the region, indicating a clear link to foreign military support. Ongoing technical investigations aim to gather further details about the entities involved in supplying these drones.

      Sudan’s Response: Monitoring and International Appeals

      In a press conference last December 2, 2024 attended by the Ministry of Communication, Sudan’s military stated their commitment to monitoring the situation closely and reserving the right to respond appropriately. The government plans to escalate the matter to regional and international organizations, filing formal complaints against the nations involved in these aggressive actions. Sudanese intelligence agencies are actively gathering more information, which will be shared with the public and media in due course.

      A Call for International Support

      As Sudan faces this unprecedented level of aggression, the need for international support and intervention becomes increasingly critical. The General Intelligence Service has called for assistance in providing air defense systems and support in international judicial bodies to address the challenges posed by these hostile actions, which are being bolstered by neighboring countries and other foreign entities.

      It is the wish of all Sudanese people that the international community notably the UN and the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights to call these countries to order for peace to return.

      Though the UN has made several appeals for help including calls for urgent aid funding and for assistance from the Security Council members in getting humanitarian aid access, more is needed to alleviate the suffering of the people.

      Efforts by Sudanese government

      The Jeddah platform was long initiated by the US and Saudi Arabia willfully accepted by sudan’s government as the way forward towards peace but the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has consistently failed to honor the agreements for a ceasefire.

      His Excellency General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, President of the Sovereignty Council and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, months back made a notable visit to South Sudan, where he participated in discussions aimed at enhancing bilateral relations..

      Additionally, General Al-Burhan addressed the virtual “Global Call for the Future Summit,” emphasizing Sudan’s commitment to sustainable development and international peace. He expressed gratitude for the United States’ support for humanitarian efforts and called for accountability regarding the atrocities committed by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia.
