The escalation came on the second day of conflict between the country's rival armed factions.
Fierce clashes have been reported across Sudan as fighting between rival armed factions continues to spread.
Witnesses in Sudan told Reuters news agency that the army appeared to be gaining the upper hand in the country's power struggle after blasting RSF bases with air strikes. Leading Arab states and the US have also urged a resumption of talks aimed at restoring a civilian government, while the African Union has announced that it is sending its top diplomat, Moussa Faki Mahamat, to try to negotiate a ceasefire.
The RSF, led by Gen Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, has claimed to control key sites in the capital, Khartoum.
