🇸🇩🇪🇬🇹🇷⚔️🇸🇩🇦🇪 We now have proof of Egypt striking RSF convoys in north-western Sudan

As I reported earlier, Egypt has been quietly striking RSF supply convoys sent by the UAE through Chad or Libya. For this purpose, they are using Turkish drones (unclear who is operating them) from a base in south-western Egypt, East Oweinat.

The Egyptians are letting the SAF use its East Oweinat airbase and strike the RSF using Turkish Akinci drones which are far better than the Bayraktar TB2 drones, with bigger range and more payload.

The New York Times reports that there has been non-stop activity at the East Oweinat airbase with Turkish cargo planes landing several times/week delivering drones, bombs & other equipment.

This reason, plus the closure of multiple regional airspace had one very important consequence : the large diminution of cargo planes flying from the UAE to Libya or Chad (only 20 this month against around 70 previous months), which means less supplies to the RSF.

This is why the UAE has recently been willing to open a new route through Ethiopia. The UAE has been arming the RSF with Chinese jammers and anti-drone weapons, managing to shoot down at least 4 Akinci drones in the past 4 months.

🇺🇸🇸🇦 New imagery reveals major expansion at the U.S. Army Logistical Support Area in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia, known as L.S.A. Jenkins.

Since early last year, the facility has added bunkers, ammo storage, new logistics and support infrastructure, and expanded living quarters for troops.

L.S.A Jenkins is far away from the Persian Gulf and by extension, Iran's large stocks of short range missiles.

L.S.A. Jenkins began being expanded before the outbreak of the 12 Day War in June 2025 and is meant to replace the Al Udeid airbase in Qatar which is far too vulnerable to Iranian attacks.

China is very likely passing intelligence to Iran.
