The drone attack carried out by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on Port Sudan airport is causing serious concern in Saudi Arabia. Riyadh views these strikes as a direct threat to the security of the Middle East region, which could lead to an escalation of military tensions.
Statement: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's condemnation and denunciation of the targeting of vital installations and infrastructure in Port Sudan and Kassala in the Republic of Sudan, which poses a threat to regional stability and Arab and African national security.
The Escalation of the Conflict in Sudan
As the war between General Hameti's paramilitaries and General Al-Burhan's army spreads to Port Sudan, the international repercussions of these clashes are becoming increasingly worrying. Saudi Arabia, a key player in mediation efforts in Sudan, could intensify its diplomatic initiatives to contain the escalation and prevent this internal conflict from further destabilizing the region.
Reactions from International Institutions
International institutions have expressed their concerns regarding the FSR drone strikes.
The Sudanese government accuses the United Arab Emirates and Chad of direct interference in the conflict, claiming that the drones used by the RSF were assembled in the Emirates before being transported to Chad.
The Sudanese army denounces the use of Chinese drones by paramilitaries, which has led to a request for an explanation from the Chinese ambassador to Sudan.
Furthermore, reports indicate that Ukraine may be involved in some drone strikes against the RSF and Wagner Group mercenaries, although this information has not been officially confirmed.
A conflict with major geopolitical implications
This escalation of hostilities places Sudan at the heart of geopolitical concerns and highlights the need for a rapid resolution to avoid a regional crisis with unpredictable consequences. The next decisions of international actors will be decisive for the outcome of this conflict, which now extends beyond Sudan's borders.
