The UN base at Kadugli is well known as being the HQ for the UN’s Abyei peacekeeping mission (UNISFA) there is absolutely nothing accidental about launching guided missiles from a drone at that base. This is an ominous indication for what the RSF has in mind for the disputed Abyei region.

Firstly some background: the reason why neither Sudan nor South Sudan could agree on a solution to Abyei despite it being a relatively small region (who’s spoken of oil reserves have been long ago fully depleted) is because the region is important to communities that wield significant influence within both countries. The permanent settlements in Abyei are home to the Ngok Dinka; who due being the only Ethnically Southern community North of the British North/South dividing line had greater access to education and development opportunities. Resulting in today a disproportionate number of South Sudanese political and thought leaders being from Abyei.
