BY NJOKI KARANJA  February 11, 2026. The Sudan Founding Alliance (Ta’sis) has accused the Sudanese army of carrying out a drone strike targeting buildings belonging to the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) in Kadugli, South Kordofan. In a press statement issued Wednesday, February 11, 2026, the alliance alleged that what it described as “militias of the criminal army” launched a strategic drone attack on WFP facilities in the city, resulting in the destruction of the buildings. The alliance further claimed that the incident forms part of what it termed ongoing violations committed during the conflict, accusing the army—linked in its statement to the Muslim Brotherhood movement—of continuing to target civilian and humanitarian infrastructure. No independent verification of the incident was immediately available, and there was no immediate response from the Sudanese Armed Forces or the World Food Programme at the time of publication. Kadugli, the capital of South ...

 BY NJOKI KARANJA  South Kordofan, Sudan. Newly leaked security documents have cast doubt on claims by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) that a convoy struck in South Kordofan was carrying humanitarian aid, instead alleging it was transporting weapons and advanced ammunition to frontline troops. An official intelligence document attributed to Sudan’s General Intelligence Service indicates that the convoy targeted in the Al-Rahad area was a covert military shipment disguised as humanitarian relief. The document, published by the British website UKNIP, states that while the convoy was publicly presented as delivering aid supplies, its cargo consisted entirely of weapons, ammunition and field equipment intended for SAF units operating across South Kordofan. According to the intelligence report, the humanitarian classification was used to facilitate safe passage through conflict zones experiencing intense military activity. The document further claims that the Rapid Supp...

By Njoki Karanja  Khartoum, February 7, 2026 . Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have strongly denied allegations linking their fighters to attacks on a hospital in Al-Kuweik area of South Kordofan, an international humanitarian aid convoy, and a reported assault on a bus carrying displaced civilians. In a statement issued on Friday, the RSF described the claims as “entirely false and misleading,” accusing unnamed parties of orchestrating a systematic disinformation campaign aimed at tarnishing the group’s image and deflecting attention from what it termed grave violations committed by the Sudanese army, which it linked to Islamist groups. The RSF said the accusations were intended to falsely incriminate its forces while concealing what it described as “heinous crimes” against civilians, including allegations that chemical weapons had been used in several parts of Sudan. The group did not provide evidence to support the chemical weapons claims. The paramilitary force a...

BY NJOKI KARANJA.  Nairobi.  Mohamed Haji Bullow, popularly known as Kahiye, has formally exited the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP), a political outfit associated with former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, citing misalignment with his political ambitions and values. Addressing journalists at a press conference in Nairobi on Tuesday, Bullow said his decision followed sustained backlash from his community over his association with DCP, prompting a reassessment of his political path. “I realized the party lacked the proper foundation to advance my political aspirations and did not fully reflect the values I stand for,” Bullow said. “The reaction from my community was a wake-up call.” He announced that he has since joined the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA), saying the move would better position him to advance his agenda and effectively represent his constituents in the next general election. Bullow also issued a public apology over a viral video clip t...

BY NJOKI KARANJA. A secretive Egyptian airbase hidden deep in the Western Desert has emerged as a crucial hub in the rapidly escalating drone war over Sudan, marking a significant shift in Cairo’s role in the region’s bloodiest conflict. According to a detailed investigation by The New York Times, the facility—officially known as East Oweinat Airport—has been used for months to launch long-range drone strikes deep into Sudanese territory. The base, the report says, is carefully disguised amid vast circular wheat fields whose geometric patterns, visible from space, help conceal runways and military infrastructure by blending them into what appears to be an ambitious agricultural project. Satellite imagery, flight records, field videos and interviews with American, European and Arab officials reveal that the site has become a major node in the Sudanese civil war, which has raged for more than a thousand days and increasingly revolves around the use of unmanned aerial vehicles...
