The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) conducted drone strikes targeting the Sudanese army's 18th Division headquarters and a fuel depot in Kosti, White Nile State, southern Sudan. The attack resulted in explosions and a major fire in the industrial area, with smoke rising from the affected sites.
According to military sources and media reports, the strikes hit both military and fuel infrastructure, but the number of casualties is still being determined. No official statements have been released by the Sudanese army or the RSF regarding the incident.
The drone attack comes as the Sudanese Armed Forces continue to make territorial gains. The army recently recaptured areas in White Nile State and Khartoum, and authorities have declared White Nile State free of RSF presence.
Separately, Sudan's army chief has appointed the country's first prime minister since the outbreak of civil war in April 2023, and an army-allied militia has retaken West Kordofan from the RSF. The conflict has resulted in over 20,000 deaths and approximately 15 million displaced people, according to United Nations and local authorities.
