**Sudan's Civil War Escalates: El Obeid Under Siege from Air** The city of El Obeid, in central Sudan, is facing a growing threat from drone attacks carried out by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group led by General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo. The RSF has been a key player in the ongoing conflict in Sudan, which began in October 2021 after a military coup ousted the civilian-led government. As the situation continues to deteriorate, civilians in El Obeid are bearing the brunt of the violence, with reports emerging of increased drone strikes and artillery bombardments. The international community is closely watching the situation, with concerns growing over the humanitarian impact and potential for further escalation.
