The advisor to the Commander of the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan confirmed the killing of the Field Support Commander, Abdul Rahman Al-Bishi, in the Blue Nile.

Sources close to the Rapid Support Forces reported that Al-Bishi, who was commander of the Rapid Support Forces in the Sennar and Blue Nile sector, was killed this morning as a result of an air strike launched by Sudanese army aircraft on the Rapid Support sites in the city of Sennar.

Pages on social media sites affiliated with the Rapid Support Forces confirmed the news of the death of Al-Bishi, who is considered one of the most prominent leaders of the Rapid Support Forces in central Sudan and one of the founders of these forces.

It is noteworthy that Al-Bishi led the recent attack on the city of Sinja, the capital of Sennar State, which the Rapid Support Forces recently took control of.

Sudan has been witnessing a devastating war since April 2023 between forces loyal to army commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces led by his former deputy, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.

This conflict resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of more than ten million people, according to United Nations reports.

The country is suffering from a severe humanitarian crisis, with about 26 million people in Sudan facing high levels of “acute food insecurity,” a problem exacerbated by the ongoing war.

The United Nations and humanitarian organizations are working to provide the necessary assistance to those affected, but the situation remains catastrophic in light of the continuing conflict.
