Iran and the United Arab Emirates have been accused of violating a UN arms embargo by supplying drones to the warring sides of the Sudan civil war.
A BBC investigation has documented the Sudanese Army's use of types of Iranian drones in its war against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Evidence has also emerged that the RSF received modified commercial drones from the UAE.
Foreign-made drones prominently changed the course of the war on the ground since their appearance in 2023.
Sudan's armed forces have been fighting the RSF for the last 14 months.
The BBC has contacted the Sudanese army, Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Qeshm Fars Air to comment on the allegations that Iranian drones are being used in the conflict but has not had a response.

He was born on September 21, 1909, in Nkroful, in the British colony of the Gold Coast (now Ghana), and he passed away on April 27, 1972, in Bucharest, Romania.Key Contributions and Legacy:Independence Movement Leader:Nkrumah was a central figure in the fight for Ghana's independence from British colonial rule. He co-founded the Convention People's Party (CPP) in 1949, which became a driving force behind the independence movement.First Prime Minister and President:In 1957, the Gold Coast gained independence and became Ghana, making it the first sub-Saharan African country to achieve independence from colonial rule. Nkrumah became the first Prime Minister of Ghana and later its first President when Ghana became a republic in 1960.Pan-Africanism:Nkrumah was a strong advocate for Pan-Africanism, seeking unity among African nations. He was instrumental in the formation of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in 1963, which aimed to promote solidarity and cooperation among African states.Economic and Social Policies:He pursued ambitious projects aimed at modernizing Ghana's economy and infrastructure. Notable among these was the construction of the Akosombo Dam, which created Lake Volta and provided hydroelectric power.Downfall and Legacy:Nkrumah's tenure was marked by economic difficulties and accusations of authoritarianism. In 1966, he was overthrown in a military coup while on a trip to China and North Vietnam. Despite his ousting, Nkrumah remains a revered figure in Ghana and across Africa for his contributions to the independence and unity movements.

This Tedx talks about how actions and steps young people see as "little" can make a difference in the lives of people and society. Tunde Onakoya is a Nigerian National Chess Master and coach. He founded Chess in Slums Africa in 2017. This non-profit organization utilizes the game of chess as a tool for social intervention—a bridge between disadvantaged kids and their ambitions, a framework to give children in impoverished communities access to tuition-free education, learning resources, and mentorship opportunities. Slowly and steadily, the project is rewriting a new narrative and building an inclusive future for every African child. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
