At Least 72 Killed in Airstrike on Sudan-Egypt Border

An airstrike on a gold mining site along the Sudan-Egypt border has resulted in the deaths of at least 72 people, according to human rights advocates. Witnesses report that military aircraft fired missiles directly into the camp, destroying equipment and causing significant casualties. The Emergency Lawyers group condemned the act as a violation of international humanitarian law and a potential war crime. Egypt has previously justified such actions as measures against illegal cross-border activities, while Sudanese authorities have yet to comment. The incident highlights ongoing tensions regarding border sovereignty and informal mining operations in the region.
