RSF Launches Coordinated Drone Campaign: Omdurman, Ed Damazin, and Abu Jubeiha Simultaneously Targeted

The Rapid Support Forces launched a coordinated multi-vector drone campaign in the early morning hours of June 5, 2026, simultaneously targeting SAF-controlled positions in three geographically separated states: Omdurman (Khartoum State), Ed Damazin (Blue Nile State capital), and Abu Jubeiha (South Kordofan / Nuba Mountains). In Omdurman, witnesses reported at least four powerful explosions as SAF air defenses intercepted at least one incoming strategic drone; the attack in Khartoum's twin city — recaptured by SAF in early 2025 — underscores persistent RSF capability to reach deep into the reconstituted SAF-held capital region. In Ed Damazin, SAF military positions near the Blue Nile State capital were targeted; Ed Damazin and the adjacent Roseires Dam had been under threat from the RSF-SPLM-N advance since Kurmuk's fall on March 23, though SAF has been rolling back those gains since April. In Abu Jubeiha — a Nuba Mountains town in South Kordofan — SAF military positions were also struck as part of the same coordinated salvo. The simultaneous three-front drone campaign represents one of the widest-ranging single-day RSF drone operations against SAF-controlled cities documented in 2026, stretching RSF's strike reach from recaptured Khartoum in the north to the deep Nuba Mountains.
