Sudanese army repels RSF attack in El Fasher, leading to numerous casualties among RSF fighters. The conflict in Darfur escalates as fighting continues, contributing to a worsening humanitarian crisis since the civil war outbreak in April 2023.
The Sudanese army successfully repelled an attack by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in El Fasher, a significant city in North Darfur, this past Sunday. This confrontation seems to have escalated as the RSF aimed to gain ground in the last major city in Darfur not yet under their control. Reports from the Sudanese Armed Forces’ 6th Infantry Division indicate that dozens of RSF fighters were killed, and several armored vehicles were destroyed in the skirmish.
Recent fighting in Sudan highlights the ongoing conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the RSF, with El Fasher remaining a critical site due to its strategic importance. This persists as part of a broader conflict that has created a severe humanitarian crisis. The international community continues to watch the situation closely, given its implications for stability in the region.
