Sudanese Military Declares Recapture of Khartoum in Ongoing Civil War

While the Sudanese Armed Forces regain control of the capital, the Rapid Support Forces maintain dominance in western regions, prolonging the humanitarian crisis and fears of national fragmentation.

  • Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan announced the recapture of Khartoum, marking a symbolic victory in the nearly two-year civil war.
  • The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have lost key positions in Khartoum, including the presidential palace and airport, but retain control of significant western territories.
  • A recent SAF airstrike in North Darfur reportedly killed dozens of civilians, further highlighting the ongoing atrocities committed by both sides in the conflict.
  • The RSF has declared a 'government of peace and unity' in its controlled regions, raising concerns about Sudan's potential fragmentation into separate entities.
  • The conflict, fueled by international involvement and strategic interests, has displaced 12.9 million people, creating one of the world's largest humanitarian crises.
