Tragic Plane Crash in Sudan
A tragic plane crash in Sudan has claimed the lives of at least 46 people. The aircraft, which took off from the Wadi Seidna airbase, crashed shortly after takeoff. Witnesses reported a loud explosion, with multiple houses being hit by the crash and power outages in several neighborhoods.
The Sudanese military has been engaged in a civil war with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces for almost two years. While a military source believes the crash was due to a technical fault and not related to the ongoing conflict, investigations are ongoing to determine the exact cause of the tragic accident.
