Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched a fresh drone strike on Port Sudan, hitting fuel tanks and disrupting flights, according to the officials.

The assault follows a similar strike on Sunday that hit a military base and a civilian warehouse, igniting a fire that lasted two days.

Footage showed smoke rising from the southern port area, where Information Minister Khalid Aleiser blamed the United Arab Emirates for supplying arms to the RSF — an allegation the Gulf nation strongly denied.

Once a refuge from war, Port Sudan now finds itself a target in a deepening conflict.
