A Sudanese military plane crashed in a residential area of Khartoum during takeoff, resulting in the deaths of over 20 individuals, including military personnel and civilians. Initial reports suggest the crash was due to technical issues. The military is currently engaged in a conflict with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which had escalated since April 2023, and this incident coincides with military advances in the area. Firefighting teams managed to control the fire at the crash site, while hospitals received many injured casualties following the incident.
Major-General Bahr Ahmed, a senior commander in Khartoum, was reportedly among the dead when a military plane crashed during takeoff, killing several.
The plane crash occurred while the military is making significant advances against the RSF, adding to the ongoing crisis that has claimed many lives.
