The United States has strongly condemned a drone attack on a United Nations base in Kadugli, Sudan, that reportedly killed six Bangladeshi peacekeepers and injured several others on Monday, December 15, 2025.

• The U.S. Senior Advisor for Arab and African Affairs called the strike a major violation of international law and an attack on global peacekeeping efforts.
• The U.S. warned Sudan’s warring factions against targeting UN personnel and demanded unhindered humanitarian access.
• The civil war, ongoing for two and a half years, stems from a power struggle between General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and General Mohamed Hamdan "Hemedti" Dagalo of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
• The Chairperson of the African Union Commission (AUC), Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, also condemned the attack, calling for the swift identification and justice for the perpetrators.
• In November, President Donald Trump announced U.S. intervention to help end the conflict at the request of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
