🇸🇩⚡- Sudanese air defences intercepted multiple drones over the disputed al-Fashaga region after they attempted to strike the Upper Atbara Dam and the Setit Dam. It remains unclear who launched the drones. However, the aircraft approached their targets via the al-Fashaga region rather than through Sudanese-controlled territory. This would make the involvement of Rapid Support Forces, RSF, operating from within Sudan less likely. Sudanese media have variously blamed the Ethiopian government, Addis Ababa-backed al-Fashaga militias, or RSF elements on Ethiopian territory. In response, certain circles within the Sudanese media are calling for a retaliatory strike on Ethiopia's GERD.
