Rapid Support Forces ( RSF ) launched a series of unprecedented drone strikes on Port Sudan in the east of the country.

The attacks have led to worsening power blackouts, as well as city residents facing water shortages.

Drones have played an increasing role in the conflict, which has entered its third year .

Sudanese army accuses the United Arab Emirates of supplying paramilitary fighters with drones.

The UN has warned that this "major escalation" could further complicate aid operations in the country and lead to large-scale civilian casualties.

The increasing use of drones by both sides may be redefining the war, but it is the ability of the RSF to strike strategic targets hundreds of kilometres from its positions.
