A violent explosion rocked the city of al-Bayda in the state of North Kordofan, Saturday afternoon, after a drone targeted the charter station, according to local sources.
The sources said that the explosion was heard in several neighborhoods of the city, while heavy clouds of smoke and flames escalated from the target site, causing anticipation and anxiety among residents.
The competent authorities have not issued any official statement on the circumstances of the incident or the extent of the human and material losses, while the teams concerned continue to assess and account for the location of the target.
The attack comes at a time when parts of Sudan are increasingly using drones to target critical facilities, raising concerns about its implications for security and service conditions.
The official authorities are expected to announce in the coming hours additional details about the incident, as well as the extent of damage and losses resulting from it.
