RSF Drone Strike Kills 27, Wounds 73 at SAF Military Base in Singa During High-Level Commanders' Meeting, Sennar State

RSF drones struck a Sudanese Armed Forces military base in Singa (Sinja), the capital of Sennar State on the Blue Nile, on April 30, 2026 during a high-level meeting of SAF commanders and government officials. At least 27 people were killed and 73 wounded in the strike — making it one of the highest-casualty single RSF drone strikes of the war. Senior officers were among the dead. Sennar State Governor Al-Zubair Hassan Al-Sayed was reportedly present at the meeting but survived. Singa lies approximately 300 km southeast of Khartoum and had previously been regarded as a relatively stable rear-area SAF administrative center. The strike demonstrates the continued expansion of RSF's long-range drone campaign into SAF-controlled eastern and central Sudan, following the April 29 RSF drone wave on the 18th Infantry Division HQ in Kosti and Kenana airbase (White Nile State). The RSF drone campaign has now repeatedly struck SAF command meetings and high-value gatherings: the April 30 Singa strike follows a pattern established by the April 8 SAF strike on a similar RSF commanders' meeting in Central Darfur. RSF has not officially claimed responsibility for the Singa strike; SAF has not issued a public statement. Neither side confirmed the figure of 27 killed/73 wounded, which was reported by Sudan War Monitor and the Wikipedia 2026 civil war timeline based on open-source tracking of radio communications and local sources. The strike comes on Day 1111 of Sudan's civil war, as both sides continue to target each other's command infrastructure with loitering munitions throughout Sudanese territory.
