flag Khartoum International Airport to resume domestic flights Oct. 22 after two-year closure due to war, despite ongoing conflict and recent drone attacks.

flag Sudan’s Civil Aviation Authority announced Khartoum International Airport will resume domestic flights on October 22, 2025, after more than two years of closure due to conflict between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). flag The reopening follows completion of technical and operational preparations and the army’s recapture of key areas, including the airport, in late March. flag However, a drone attack struck the airport area early October 21, with multiple explosions reported in central and southern Khartoum and northern Omdurman, marking the third such incident in a week. flag No group has claimed responsibility, and details on damage or casualties remain unclear. flag Despite ongoing reconstruction and the return of over 800,000 people to the capital, much of Khartoum remains in ruins, and frequent blackouts persist. flag The conflict continues, with intense fighting centered on El-Fasher in Darfur, where the RSF has besieged the city for over 18 months. flag The war has caused tens of thousands of deaths and displaced nearly 12 million people, fueling the world’s largest displacement and hunger crises.
