Terror from the skies: drones are redefining warfare in Sudan, and massacring its civilians
Strikes with huge death tolls are an increasing occurrence as UAVs ‘bring the war to places that were once safe’ The first drone struck the busy transport hub near a market in Al-Dibab as hundreds of people gathered to board trucks to take them back to their homes. Ten minutes later on the evening of 18 October, a second drone hit the same site in the town in West Kordofan state, Sudan. At least 139 people were killed.
