The Sudani Army confiscated the entire control of the President’s Mahal in the city Khartum on Friday, said in a statement, there would be a major benefit in a two -year struggle with a rival armed group that threatened to divide the country.
Paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) stated that it lived in the area around the palace hours later, and it launched an attack in which dozens of army soldiers were killed.
Army sources said the fighters were about 400 meters away. He said that army forces suffered a drone attack, killing several soldiers as well as three state television journalists.
The army was on the back leg for a long time, but has recently been earning profit and has surpassed the region from the RSF at the center of the country.
Meanwhile, RSF has consolidated control in the West, strictly strictly lines the lines of the war and moved the country to the real partition. RSF is working to establish a parallel government in areas that it controls, although it is not expected to achieve widespread international recognition.
The RSF seized the President’s palace rapidly along the rest of the city, as well as the President Mahal, in April 2023, the war began on the integration of paramilitary in the armed forces.
The army shared videos of soldiers who cheered on the palace ground, its glass windows shattered and the walls were paired with a bullet hole. The images showed the cladding of the recently built palace torn from the explosions.
Many Sudani welcomed the army’s statement that it had control of the palace.
Mohammad Ibrahim, a resident of 55 -year -old Khartum, said, “The salvation of the palace is the best news that I have heard since the beginning of the war because it means that the army starts to control the rest of the Khartum.”
“We want to be safe again and live without any fear or hunger,” he said.
At the end of Thursday, the RSF said that it had seized an important basis from the army in North Darfur, a region in the west of the country.
What has the struggle called the United Nations the biggest humanitarian crisis, which is spreading famine in many places and illness in the country of 50 million people.
Both sides have been accused of war crimes, while RSF has also been accused of massacre. Both sides deny allegations.
Guns in Khartum
On Friday, a gun bullet was heard in Khartum and a bloody fight was expected as the army wants to take the RSF to the corner, which still occupies the health of the area in the south of the palace.
The army’s statement said, “We are all moving forward with the fighting axes until the dirt of this militia and its colleagues clean every inch of our country and the victory is not fulfilled.”
RSF leader Mohammad Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemmedty, instructed the soldiers earlier this week to maintain control in the palace.
Although the RSF still has a situation in Khartum, its foothills are more difficult than any point as the conflict began and the trajectory suggests that RSF will be pushed out completely, said Ahmed Soliman, senior research partner at Chautham House.
The army is likely to continue war in the West, he said, Sudan is facing “one election, partition reality”.
The war broke out two years ago as the country was planning an infection for democratic rule.
In 2019, the army and RSF joined the army after Omar al-Bashir out of power and later excluding civil leadership.
But they have long been over obstacles, as Bashir developed Hemidi and RSF, whose roots have their roots in the Janjvid militia of Darfur, as a counterweight for the army, led by Carrier Officer Abdel Fatta al-Boron.
