Sudan Files Complaint to UN Security Council Nv
MILITARY signal, reported in SU, from newvision.co.ug, with negative sentiment. Locations: Ethiopia, Tigray, Khartoum, Al Khartum.
What Happened
Sudan has filed complaints against Ethiopia at the UN Security Council and African Union, accusing Addis Ababa of allowing drone strikes by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) against civilian facilities from its territory. Sudan's military claims Ethiopia has repeatedly aided the RSF, which it has been fighting since April 2023, including through drone attacks launched from Ethiopian territory. Ethiopia denies the accusations, alleging Sudanese forces support rebels linked to the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), which Khartoum rejects. Sudan's army-aligned foreign ministry described the use of Ethiopian territory by the RSF as 'blatant aggression' violating international law. A report states Sudan documented 70 attacks involving 187 one-way drones launched from Ethiopia this year, killing and injuring nearly 500 civilians. The attacks targeted residential areas, hospitals, and fuel stations, causing widespread electricity outages in Khartoum, Al-Jazirah, White Nile, and Gedaref. The UN reported over 1,100 deaths in drone attacks across Sudan in the first half of the year.
Why it matters
Sudan's complaint escalates tensions between the two nations over drone strikes, which have killed nearly 500 civilians this year. The attacks disrupt critical infrastructure, causing prolonged power outages in four states. Ethiopia denies Sudan's accusations, while Sudan insists Ethiopia violates international law by enabling RSF operations. The dispute could lead to further diplomatic friction or security measures as both sides accuse each other of supporting armed groups.
