Sudan’s army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, maintained a defiant stance on Wednesday following a drone strike on an army base he was inspecting in eastern Sudan says Reuters. The attack, which occurred during a graduation ceremony at the Gibeit army base, located approximately 100 kmfrom Port Sudan in the Red Sea state, resulted in five fatalities.
