Drone attacks cause power outages in Sudan
Most of the army-controlled areas in Sudan have been plunged into blackouts following drone attacks on power generation facilities by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia, government officials and residents told Reuters on January 18th.
The blackouts began on January 13th after drone attacks on the country’s largest dam at Merowe, which affected Sudan’s Northern State, while a technical issue affected the River Nile and Red Sea states.
The blackouts spread on January 18th after an attack overnight on the al-Shouk power station in eastern Sudan, putting Gedaref, Kassala and Sennar states offline, the officials and residents stated.
