SAF Drone Strikes Target RSF Positions in North Kordofan — Heavy Losses Claimed

SAF launched drone strikes targeting RSF positions in North Kordofan State on May 27, 2026, with military sources claiming 'heavy losses' on the RSF in both personnel and equipment. The strikes continue SAF's sustained air campaign across Kordofan that has accompanied SAF ground advances breaking the Dilling siege (May 20), capturing Dibebad crossroads in South Kordofan (May 22–23), and steadily interdicting RSF supply lines through the Kordofan corridor. North Kordofan is key terrain linking RSF-controlled Darfur to central Sudan via the supply axis that SAF has been progressively cutting since the relief of El Obeid (February 2025). SAF does not routinely confirm drone strike details in official statements; casualty figures remain unverified. The strikes fall within the ongoing multi-front SAF offensive that has combined air strikes, ground advances, and diplomatic moves (Burhan's Eid political dialogue announcement, same day) to consolidate the military-political gains of May 2026.
