At least 880 civilians killed in Sudan drone strikes between January and April: UN

At least 880 civilians were killed in drone strikes in Sudan between January and April this year, the U.N. said Monday, warning such strikes were pushing the conflict towards a "new, even deadlier phase."

The United Nations rights office said in a statement that its Sudan team had determined that "drone strikes accounted for at least 880 civilian deaths -- more than 80 percent of all conflict-related civilian deaths -- between January and April this year," with rights chief Volker Turk stressing that "armed drones have now become by far and away the leading cause of civilian deaths."
