Egypt condemns Khartoum Airport strike, warns of wider escalation

Egypt strongly condemned the drone strike on Khartoum International Airport, warning of its grave implications for Sudan’s stability and the wider region, the Foreign Ministry said Tuesday. The ministry described the attack as a “flagrant violation” of Sudan’s sovereignty and a direct threat to civilian infrastructure, calling it a dangerous escalation that risks worsening both the security and humanitarian situation. Cairo voiced concern over the growing frequency of such strikes, reportedly launched from outside Sudan, cautioning that they could expand the conflict’s scope and spill over into neighboring countries. The statement stressed that the escalation undermines ongoing regional and international efforts to secure a ceasefire and reduce tensions, including initiatives led by the United States, and further exacerbates the suffering of the Sudanese people. Egypt reaffirmed its support for Sudan’s unity and territorial integrity, rejecting foreign interference in its internal affairs and urging adherence to international law and the UN Charter. It also reiterated backing for initiatives aimed at containing the crisis, calling on all parties to pursue peaceful solutions to restore stability in Sudan.The post Egypt condemns Khartoum Airport strike, warns of wider escalation first appeared on Dailynewsegypt.
