Sudan Army Launches Preemptive Strike Against Rapid Support Forces

In a dramatic escalation of the ongoing conflict in Sudan, the Sudanese army has launched a preemptive strike against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the Doha neighborhood of Jabra, south of Khartoum. This operation, based on intelligence reports, resulted in significant casualties among the RSF, with the army claiming to have killed dozens and destroyed military equipment, including a tank. The army's Armored Corps Special Action Forces have reportedly made advances in the region, seizing new positions and capturing various weapons and ammunition.

The conflict, which has persisted since mid-April 2023, has wreaked havoc across Sudan, leading to the deaths of approximately 18,800 individuals and displacing nearly 10 million more. As the fighting continues to ravage the country, the United Nations has warned of a looming humanitarian catastrophe, with millions facing starvation and a severe lack of medical supplies. Amidst these dire circumstances, the Coordination of Civilian Democratic Forces (Taqaddum) has welcomed the recent announcement by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, stating that both the Sudanese army and RSF have agreed to open vital crossings for humanitarian aid delivery. This pledge is seen as a crucial step towards alleviating the suffering of over 20 million citizens affected by the conflict.

  • ## Humanitarian Crisis Deepens Amid Ongoing Conflict The humanitarian situation in Sudan has reached alarming levels due to the relentless fighting between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces. The conflict has spread across 13 out of the 18 states in Sudan, exacerbating food shortages and pushing millions towards famine. The United Nations and various international organizations have called for an immediate cessation of hostilities to prevent further loss of life and to facilitate the delivery of essential aid. As the situation unfolds, there is a growing hope that the recent commitment to open crossings for humanitarian aid will be honored, allowing food and medical supplies to reach those in desperate need. The international community remains vigilant, urging both parties to prioritize the welfare of civilians and adhere to their humanitarian commitments.
