Sudan claims 70 drone attacks launched from Ethiopia killed and wounded hundreds over eight months
Sudan's army-led Transitional Sovereignty Council reported that 70 drone attacks involving 187 one-way attack drones were launched from Ethiopian territory between 15 February and 27 October, resulting in hundreds of casualties among civilians and soldiers. The report notes an intensification of strikes in recent months, including an October attack in Blue Nile State.
Why it matters in Ethiopia: Sudan is a neighbouring country, and cross-border security accusations directly impact bilateral relations and regional stability in the Horn of Africa.
