A US diplomatic convoy to Sudan came under fire on Monday, but no one was injured, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday.
According to the diplomat who spoke separately with the two rival generals struggling for power, the convoy was attacked but no one was injured.
“I can confirm that an American diplomatic convoy came under fire Monday in Sudan,” Anthony Blinken said.
“All our staff are safe and sound but this act is “irresponsible”, he added to the press after a meeting of G7 foreign ministers in Japan.
“This incident is still under investigation to determine what exactly happened. According to initial information we have, it is the work of forces associated with the RSF, the paramilitary units of General Mohamed Hamdane Daglo,” he said, recalling that the convoy had clearly identified license plates.
Monday evening, the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrell announced that the EU ambassador to Sudan had been “attacked” at his home.
