UN Documents at Least 306 Deaths in Sudan Drone Attacks

At least 306 people were killed in drone attacks in Sudan during the first three weeks of October, according to figures documented by the United Nations human rights office.

Hundreds more were injured in the attacks over the same period. The figures highlight the toll of drone warfare on people caught in Sudan’s conflict.

The UN findings show that drones have become the largest source of war-related civilian deaths in Sudan this year, underscoring the weapon’s increasingly deadly role.

The death toll is a documented minimum, rather than a final count. It covers only the opening three weeks of October, not the full month.
