Several areas saw deadly fighting between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), resulting in a large number of deaths on Monday.
Violent clashes erupted in a number of areas around the city of El-Obeid, causing a large number of deaths in the ranks of the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, according to Sudanese media sources.
For its part, platforms affiliated with the Rapid Support confirmed the death of hundreds of army soldiers in the battles that included the headquarters of the Central Reserve Forces in the city of El-Obeid, while other platforms indicated the death of at least a thousand soldiers from both sides.
While sources affiliated with the Sudanese army announced that the Rapid Support Forces had repelled the attack of the Rapid Support Forces, the latter confirmed their pursuit of the Haggana Division forces, noting that they were able to seize 13 combat vehicles, 3 armored vehicles, tanks and a quantity of weapons and ammunition.
In a related context, the city of El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, is witnessing a mobilization of the Rapid Support Forces, and fears of an imminent comprehensive confrontation between the army and the Rapid Support Forces are mounting in the city, despite international calls to avoid fighting in it, especially in light of the worsening humanitarian situation and the acute shortage of medical and food aid.
