Army, Rapid Support Forces resume fighting in Sudan capital
Sudan’s warring parties fought in the capital on Friday after the collapse of talks to maintain a ceasefire and ease a humanitarian crisis.
Seven weeks of warfare between the army and RSF have smashed up parts of central Khartoum, threatened to destabilize the wider region, displaced 1.2 million people inside Sudan and sent 400,000 others into neighbouring states. Washington imposed sanctions on businesses belonging to the army and RSF and threatened more action “if the parties continue to destroy their country,” a senior U.S. official said.
Since the overthrow of long-time ruler Omar al-Bashir in 2019 Sudan’s government has been headed by a sovereign council under army chief General Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan with the RSF head Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemedti, as his deputy.
