An account of Sudan Times posted at 20:04 UTC on Monday 5 October 2026 said the Sudan Founding Alliance strongly condemned the Sudanese Armed Forces for a deliberate airstrike on a World Food Programme convoy in South Kordofan that killed a driver, and called for an independent international investigation and immediate action to protect relief workers. A second account posted a minute later said field reports attributed the attack to a drone of the Sudanese army and that one driver was killed. The strike and the death were reported by the World Food Programme on 4 October, which did not attribute it, so the attribution and the condemnation are the new material here. No Sudanese army statement was cited in either post.

Verification: unverified

Evidence: Sudan Times post relaying the Sudan Founding Alliance condemnation of the strike on a WFP convoy in South Kordofan, Account post reporting a WFP convoy hit in South Kordofan and citing field reports that attribute it to an army drone

The condemnation is reported by one newsroom account and the drone attribution is given as field reports by a separate account, with no original reporting and no official army response cited. Both are published as attributed claims; the strike itself was reported separately on 4 October without attribution.
