Sudanese army downs 3 drones in eastern Sudan

The Sudanese army shot down three drones in eastern Sudan, according to local media on Tuesday.

The drones were downed by air defenses in the Al-Fashaga area of Gedaref state and Khashm al-Girba in Kassala state, the daily Sudan News reported.

The report described the drones as belonging to the “enemy,” without identifying their operator or providing information about casualties or damage.
