Sudan Accuses Ethiopia and UAE of Drone Attacks, Recall Ambassador

The Sudanese government accuses Ethiopia and the United Arab Emirates of orchestrating recent drone attacks, citing evidence of four incidents originating from Ethiopia’s Bahir Dar airport since March 1. It alleges the UAE supplied the drones used in these attacks, leading Sudan to recall its ambassador from Ethiopia.
What Ethiopia and the UAE have done is direct aggression against Sudan and won't be met with silence.
We do not want to initiate aggression against any country, but whoever attacks us will be met with a response.
It is evident that these hostile actions, as well as the recent and earlier series of allegations by officials of Sudanese armed forces, are undertaken at the behest of external patrons seeking to advance their own nefarious agenda.
The Sudanese armed forces have also provided arms and financial support to these mercenaries, thereby facilitating their incursions along Ethiopia's western frontier.
Sudan is serving as a hub for various anti-Ethiopian forces.
Because really [it] benefits neither [to] get more deeply involved in the other's civil war.
But they have shown in the past that they're able to meet together and de-escalate things.
That has been a focus of US diplomacy, but that has yet to gain traction.
That obviously creates a very dangerous dynamic between the two countries and risks making their own internal challenges much worse.
