Sudan’s air force has destroyed a UAE aircraft carrying Colombian mercenaries as it was landing at an airport in Darfur controlled by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), army-aligned state TV reported.
The attack late on Wednesday killed at least 40 people, the state broadcaster reported. A military source, speaking to the AFP news agency on condition of anonymity, said the Emirati plane “was bombed and completely destroyed” at Darfur’s Nyala airport. There was no immediate comment from the RSF.
AFP quoted an Emirati official denouncing what he considered false allegations that the Sudanese army had destroyed the plane. Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro said his government was trying to find out how many Colombians died in the attack.
The army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, has long accused the United Arab Emirates of supplying advanced weaponry, including drones, to the RSF via Nyala Airport.
So Israel threatened the UK. I’m still groggy and reeling from the implications, there, not just for the UK but the rest of the West. The implications for Israel is the only way to check them is to make them physically Isn’treal. The West won’t because they’re greedy, sadistic, sociopath, Nazis, and possibly also because of the implications of the threat made to the UK, but!
All these smaller states without defense/communication entanglements with Israel and without huge defense budgets can do so much to check Israel?
So a roll of the cosmic dice for outcome?
