Five mining wells collapse in Sudan,10 dead
The collapse of five artisanal mining wells in the Ouni area of Red Sea State in eastern Sudan has resulted in at least ten deaths and injuries to another 21 people, with rescue and search operations ongoing for those missing under the rubble. The incident occurred following successive collapses while the miners were inside the wells, which relied on primitive methods lacking safety measures. Artisanal mining is a major source of income for more than 1.5 million miners in Sudan, accounting for nearly 80% of the gold production, which reached approximately 70 tons in 2025, despite its decline due to ongoing conflicts since 2023.
