Sudan: Drone attack hits capital ahead of planned airport reopening

Source: BBC News [UK state media]

“A drone attack has hit an area near the international airport in Sudan’s capital, Khartoum, a day before it was set to resume domestic flights for the first time since war broke out in 2023. Residents of the city reported hearing explosions in several districts early on Tuesday morning. Social media images — yet to be verified by the BBC — appear to show a series of blasts. … Tuesday’s strike marked the third attack in the capital within a week, following strikes on two army bases in north-west Khartoum on consecutive days last week.” (10/21/25)
