Sudan accused Ethiopia of allowing drones used in attacks on Sudan to launch from its territory, a claim that raises cross-border tensions amid the war.
Separately, Anadolu Agency reported that drone attacks targeted six electricity stations on Wednesday in Khartoum, Al-Jazira, Sennar and Al-Qadarif.
Sudanese Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Muawiya Osman Khalid spoke at a Khartoum event hosted by Sudan News Agency (SUNA) about claims that Ethiopia backs the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Anadolu reported. Khalid said Sudan would defend itself and raise its concerns internationally. He urged international justice bodies to halt what he called aggression and distinguished the Ethiopian public from its government, which he accused of attacking Sudanese civilians.
Ethiopia denied the accusations and said it respects Sudan’s sovereignty.
The war between Sudan’s army and the RSF began in April 2023 amid disagreements over integrating the paramilitary force into the military. EconoTimes previously reported strikes that cut power at Managil’s power station in Gezira state and hit nearby fuel sites.
