Saturday's attack on the Al Mujlad Hospital took place in West Kordofan, near the front line between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.

Explosions rock Port Sudan, army says it intercepted drones
DUBAI, May 7 — Sudan's army said its anti-aircraft systems intercepted drones targeting a naval base in the wartime capital Port Sudan today. Explosions were heard in the city, though it was not immediately clear whether they were near the Flamingo base. Port Sudan has been hit by days of assaults — including reported drone strikes by Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) — that have torched the country's biggest fuel depots and damaged its main gateway for humanitarian aid. The Red Sea city had enjoyed relative calm since the war between the army and the RSF broke out in April 2023, triggering mass displacement, famine and ethnically-driven killings.

The drone strikes on Port Sudan opened a new front after the army had made recent gains in the capital and central Sudan. Momentum has swung back and forth in a conflict in which drones have played a growing role, and neither faction has looked likely to win outright. The war erupted from a power struggle between the army and the RSF and has seen both sides draw on support from foreign allies. — Reuters
