Sudan Axis is a Sudanese news account reporting from footage and military sources. The posts give no clock time and no day for the strikes, and the attribution to the RSF comes from Sudanese authorities and military sources rather than the RSF itself. The governor's residence is reported in the post about several locations struck in Damazin, and the finance minister in a separate post; the two are kept with their own sources. No RSF account was available to this report. Footage referenced by the posts was not retrieved.
