On the other hand, the commander of the Rapid Support Forces, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti), accused the Sudanese army of withdrawing from the peace negotiations.
Hemedti stressed that his forces would not hesitate to defend themselves from what he called the remnants of the old regime and elements of the Islamic Movement in the Sudanese army and intelligence services, in addition to “armed mercenary movements.”

Hemedti reiterated his welcome to regional initiatives aimed at achieving comprehensive peace and restoring the democratic path in Sudan.
Hemedti called for the necessity of opening all corridors to deliver aid to those in need, noting that Sudan is suffering exceptional circumstances due to the war.
Since mid-April 2023, the Sudanese army led by Al-Burhan and the Rapid Support Forces led by Hemedti have been waging an armed conflict that has killed about 15,000 people and displaced more than 8 million others, according to United Nations reports.
