Many Dead As Military Aircraft Crashes
A Sudanese military transport plane crashed into a residential area on the outskirts of Khartoum, killing at least 19 people, according to the army-aligned health ministry. The Antonov aircraft went down near Wadi Seidna Air Base in Omdurman, a major Sudanese military hub, on Tuesday night during takeoff.
The crash resulted in fatalities among both military personnel and civilians, with witnesses reporting a loud explosion and damaged homes in the area. The incident also caused power outages in nearby neighborhoods.
The Sudanese army has been engaged in a violent conflict with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023. However, there is no indication that the crash was related to the conflict.
