A year after the Rapid Support Forces captured El Fasher, Britain sanctioned 15 commanders from both warring sides, as drone warfare escalated: strikes cut power across four states, and a strike on a market in Nyala killed at least 36 people, Médecins Sans Frontières said. A U.N. fact-finding mission said RSF drone attacks and army detention practices in El Obeid may amount to war crimes. Sudan accused Ethiopia of allowing drones to be launched from its territory, and Burhan offered Russia a free economic zone on the Red Sea, while the World Food Programme said funding shortages cut the number of people it reached to 3.1 million as 19.5 million face acute hunger.
