A drone attack targeted the airport in the Sudanese capital on Monday, a military source said, two days after paramilitary attacks on Khartoum killed five people.
"Our air defences successfully downed drones that were targeting Khartoum airport," the source told AFP.
Witnesses confirmed hearing the sounds of blasts and seeing smoke rise from the Safa neighbourhood east of the airport.
