至少72名在苏丹-埃及边境从事手工采金的工人在空袭中丧生12。苏丹人权组织紧急律师指控埃及空军实施了这次袭击12，称飞机向采矿营地发射了超过5枚导弹2。埃及政府和苏丹当局均未对此事作出评论2。
人权组织警告死亡人数可能继续增加，因为伤者众多且医疗服务严重不足1。该组织声称此举违反了国际人道法，指出"有意针对无武装平民违反了国际人道法和生命权"，并表示这些行为"可能构成战争罪"2。一名幸存者称空袭时该地区有数千人在开采黄金1。
苏丹紧急律师组织还指控埃及此举旨在扩大其对苏丹自然资源的控制1。根据英国智库Chatham House的数据，60%的非官方黄金出口最终流向埃及1。埃及边境部队曾宣布开展安全行动，并扣押了86吨金矿石2。
At least 72 civilian gold prospectors were killed in air strikes that targeted artisanal mining operations on the Sudan-Egypt border on Saturday 12. The strikes occurred in the Halaib Triangle region south of the Nile River 1, with aircraft firing more than five missiles at mining camps beginning at 06:00 local time 2. Human rights organizations have accused Egyptian military forces of conducting the strikes, though Egypt has not commented on the incident 12.
The Sudan-based rights group Emergency Lawyers stated that the attack violated international humanitarian law, declaring that "intentionally targeting unarmed civilians violates international humanitarian law and the right to life" and asserting that such actions may constitute war crimes 2. A survivor reported that thousands of people were engaged in mining operations in the area at the time of the attack 1. The death toll is expected to rise, as medical services remain insufficient and there are numerous wounded 12.
This represents the second similar attack in the region this year, following a previous strike in June when Egyptian border forces launched a security operation and seized 86 tons of gold ore 2. According to data from the Chatham House think tank, 60 percent of informal gold exports ultimately flow to Egypt 1.
