Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have released a video showing massive military movements heading towards confronting the Sudanese army in its strongholds in Khartoum.
The Rapid Support Forces explained in the video broadcast on its account on the “X” platform that these military reinforcements aim to control the military areas of the army in Omdurman, while the Sudanese authorities are trying to secure strategic areas and restore stability to the troubled areas.

Sudan’s military last week announced control of the radio and television complex, making progress in the conflict with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which had controlled the complex and the old neighbourhoods of Omdurman since the start of the war in mid-April last year.
The ongoing conflict in Sudan, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti), has left thousands dead and millions displaced and refugees, according to UN reports.
WHO Director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus noted the urgent need for humanitarian assistance in Sudan, where half of the country’s population faces emergency needs and millions are undernourished, and health services are deficient.
