A diplomatic communication has been circulated among foreign missions in Islamabad and shared with Pakistan\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs also and in that correspondence, the Government of Sudan has accused regional actors of direct and indirect involvement in military operations against its sovereignty, territorial integrity, and civilian population.<\/p>\n

The communication, issued by the Embassy of Sudan, details what it describes as a sustained campaign of external aggression involving support for the rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF), cross-border military preparations, drone incursions, and attacks on civilian as well as military targets inside Sudanese territory.<\/p>\n

According to the document shared with diplomatic missions, a military training camp with the capacity to train around 10,000 fighters was established in Ethiopia near Sudan\u2019s eastern frontier in October 2025, followed by the gathering of nearly 7,000 mercenaries of various nationalities in November and December of the same year. The communication further claims that a drone-launching facility was also constructed close to the border.<\/p>\n

The communication said the first major aerial violation occurred on March 1, 2026, when three advanced strategic drones allegedly crossed into Sudanese airspace and targeted areas in White Nile, Blue Nile, North Kordofan and South Kordofan states. Sudanese armed forces reportedly intercepted one of the drones while two others returned across the border.<\/p>\n

A second drone attack was reported on March 17, targeting positions of the Sudanese armed forces in White Nile, Blue Nile and the town of Alkurmuk. According to the communication, the drone was eventually shot down north of Al-Obeid in Northern Kordofan.<\/p>\n

According to the document, on March 24, RSF fighters and mercenaries launched attacks on Alkurmuk along the shared border as well as Alkailik town inside Sudanese territory.
According to the document, the attacks escalated in May when drones allegedly launched from across Sudan\u2019s eastern frontier struck multiple civilian and strategic targets between May 1 and May 4. The strikes reportedly hit South Omdurman, Khartoum\u2019s Imtidad Nassir area, Zedan Alkahali village in Eastern Aljazira, and Khartoum International Airport, killing dozens of civilians, including women and children, while also causing damage to civilian infrastructure. As a protest the Sudan government has called its ambassador back from Addis Ababa conveying to the country that it had the right to defend its soil and protect its people under the UN Charter and the international law.<\/p>\n

The Sudanese government, the document reveals has said that it had thoroughly verified all technical information and possessed what it described as \u201cclear material evidence\u201d of continued acts of external aggression against Sudan by Ethiopia and supported by the UAE.<\/p>\n

\u201cKhartoum has lodged formal protests with the United Nations, African Union and Intergovernmental Authority on Development, warning that such actions could further destabilize the Horn of Africa and East Africa,\u201d it concluded.<\/p>\n
