[Sudan] Explosions/Remote violence: Air/drone strike

Summary

Single-source GDELT detection — awaiting independent verification. Rapid Support Forces (RSF) reportedly conducted airstrikes and artillery shelling against El Fasher in North Darfur on 29 March 2025, apparently to cover a withdrawal of their forces. Casualty figures remain unknown.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether the reported RSF withdrawal indicates a broader shift in control over North Darfur's regional trade routes.

Watch points

• Independent confirmation of RSF withdrawal from El Fasher and implications for control of North Darfur transport corridors
• Escalation or de-escalation patterns that could affect overland trade routes between Sudan and neighboring countries
