Sudan drone strikes caused 880 civilian deaths between January and April, accounting for 80% of conflict-related fatalities according to UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) data. This surge marks a lethal shift in the civil war between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces. Expanding hostilities threaten to disrupt regional stability and block critical aid delivery to famine-risk areas.
