Nearly 700 reported killed in Sudan drone strikes this year: UN

Nearly 700 civilians have been reported killed in drone strikes in Sudan since January, the United Nations said Tuesday (April 14, 2026), detailing the devastation and humanitarian catastrophe wrought by the brutal civil war.

Now entering a fourth year, the war between Sudan’s army and the Paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has killed tens of thousands, displaced over 11 million, and thrust several areas into famine.
