font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">The widespread attacks that targeted the heart of the Sudanese capital on Tuesday, extending to Omdurman, El Obeid, and White Nile, and prior to that to cities in Darfur states such as Nyala, Zalingei, and others, indicate a qualitative and dangerous shift toward a militarily low-cost style of warfare, in which drones are used as a central tool in the conflict.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">In practice, this shift means prolonging the war, with the resulting increase in destruction and the rising human and humanitarian cost, amid a clear political deadlock.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">UN: Sudan Is a \u201cLaboratory of Atrocities\u201d<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">The United Nations described the escalating drone attacks between the warring parties as \u201cextremely concerning and endangering the lives of civilians,\u201d noting that the new attacks have displaced more than 2,600 people in North Kordofan and nearly 1,000 people in South Kordofan in the past week alone.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">St\u00e9phane Dujarric, spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General, said a drone was shot down over Khartoum International Airport, leading to the cancellation of flights, adding: \u201cThis airport, as you know, is critical for humanitarian access.\u201d<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Dujarric condemned the attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure, calling on all parties to respect international humanitarian law.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Tom Fletcher, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, had described the war in Sudan as having turned into a \u201claboratory of atrocities,\u201d noting that schools and hospitals were now being systematically targeted.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">He said, \u201cDrones have claimed the lives of 700 people this year alone, and 130 humanitarian workers have been killed over the past three years.\u201d<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;

font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Sudanese military expert Brigadier General Mohamed Awad told Sky News Arabia that \u201cthis approach reduces the cost of military operations, expands the scope of targeting, and at the same time increases the risk of civilian casualties, allowing for rapid infliction of losses without the need for traditional front lines.\u201d<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Awad believes this shift entrenches what is known as \u201csmart attrition warfare,\u201d which prolongs the conflict without a military resolution or a clear victory for any of the parties involved.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;

font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">A recent U.S. report revealed an Iranian military supply network to the Sudanese army, which included \u201cMojaher-6\u201d drones, while judicial investigations in Abu Dhabi and Washington have uncovered arms smuggling networks supplying the army from Iran and other sources.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Observers believe this interference confirms that the war is no longer a purely internal matter but has become linked to broader geopolitical calculations, further complicating it and making it harder to contain.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;

font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Reports from international humanitarian aid organizations indicate that the escalating use of drones complicates humanitarian operations and increases risks to civilians, as the challenge extends beyond merely delivering aid to ensuring it is not affected by the conflict.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">These organizations have also warned that the escalation of military operations using these means makes the humanitarian environment more dangerous and complex.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Recent reports from the United Nations Development Programme and the World Food Programme highlight widespread damage to production sources and a halt in agricultural activity, increasing reliance on aid and threatening to turn the crisis into a long-term food disaster.<\/span><\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;
