8 million internally displaced Sudanese since April of last year - World at War
For the last eleven months, the Republic of Sudan—the third-largest country in Africa—has been devastated by conflict. On April 15, hostilities broke out between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, or RSF, and the Sudanese armed forces. Following the toppling of former strongman Omar Al-Bashir in 2019, the army under Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the RSF under Mohamed Hamadan Dagalo shared authority with civilians. Additionally, the army and RSF collaborated to carry out a coup in 2021. However, the planned integration of the paramilitary RSF into the regular army—a politically motivated shift plan approved by the international community—caused a deterioration in ties between the army and the RSF. More than 8 million people have been displaced by the conflict since it started in mid-April. It has also destroyed the capital city of Khartoum, sparked a humanitarian catastrophe, and led to ethnically motivated killings in Darfur. The Sudanese army now claims to have retaken the state broadcaster's Omdurman headquarters on March 12th, marking the biggest victory over rival paramilitary group RSF. Since shortly after hostilities broke out in mid-April, the RSF had possessed the headquarters. Details are brought to you by Mohammed Saleh.
