In just a few days, drones killed 250 people in oil-rich Abyei.

A drone attack on a crowded market in the disputed Abyei region has resulted in 153 fatalities, raising the death toll from recent attacks to 250. South Sudan declared independence from Sudan in 2011, with both nations claiming the oil-rich Abyei. The conflict in Sudan escalated into civil war in April 2023, following a power struggle between military leaders. Nearly five million people have fled the country due to the violence, which the UN has labeled as the world's worst humanitarian crisis.
