Chadian soldiers inspect vehicles travelling between Chad and Sudan, amid the ongoing conflict between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Army, at the Tine border post in eastern Chad, November 22, 2025.
A cross-border drone attack from Sudan killed 17 people in Chad including mourners attending a funeral service, the Chadian government and local sources said on Thursday, and the country's president vowed to retaliate for any further attacks.
The border town of Tine was struck on Wednesday afternoon as mourners gathered at a house for a funeral ceremony for a dead relative that involved reading the Koran, a local resident said.
