Rhino: Agencies – A drone struck the strategic fuel warehouses in Port Sudan, eastern Sudan, on Monday at dawn, one day after it targeted the airport and vital facilities in the city, according to Ayn news network.

According to witnesses who spoke to Ayn, a huge explosion occurred at around 5 a.m. today, Monday, in the strategic fuel warehouses south of Port Sudan.

The warehouse, which was likely targeted by a drone, contains gasoline, as the fuel line belonging to the Ministry of Energy and Oil, which was established in 2013, was hit, according to witnesses.
