Power outage hits several Sudanese cities, anti-aircraft missiles repel drone attack on Meroe Dam

The Meroe Dam in northern Sudan was attacked this morning by a drone belonging to the Rapid Support Forces militia, causing a complete power outage in several Sudanese cities.

The command of the 19th Infantry Division in Meroe stated that the ground defenses of the 19th Infantry Division in Meroe were able to shoot down a number of drones launched by the rebel Rapid Support Forces militia. These drones attempted to target the headquarters of the 19th Infantry Division and the Meroe Dam, but were intercepted by ground anti-aircraft missiles. This confirms that the militia is targeting the citizens’ infrastructure. The leadership of the 19th Infantry Division confirmed its full readiness to confront any threats to the Northern State, stressing that the repeated attempts to target the citizens’ infrastructure will not succeed in achieving their goals, and that the army continues to protect its headquarters and secure strategic areas.
