Sudan’s Sovereign Council leader, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, announced there will be no negotiations or compromises with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) amid ongoing military conflict. The army has gained ground against RSF forces, leading to heavy clashes. The conflict has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and millions displaced, prompting urgent humanitarian warnings from the UN and international community.
Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, leader of Sudan’s Sovereign Council, firmly stated that there will be no negotiations or compromises with armed groups opposing the state. Speaking during a visit to the Omdurman military area near Khartoum, Burhan emphasized continued military action against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), insisting the army will not abandon its allies in the fight.
Burhan declared, “There will be no negotiation or compromise with those who have taken up arms against the state and the people” and committed to driving the RSF out, aiming for complete control over Sudan.
Recently, Sudan’s military has achieved advancements against the RSF in Khartoum, marked by resounding explosions and clashes reported in the city. The army is also making strides in the Soba area, vital for controlling critical transport routes.
Since hostilities began in mid-April 2023, over 20,000 individuals have died and approximately 14 million have been displaced, according to UN sources. However, research from U.S. universities suggests the death toll may reach as high as 130,000.
There are increasing calls from international bodies and the UN for the conflict to cease, as the humanitarian situation deteriorates, threatening millions with famine. The violence has now affected numerous states across Sudan, exacerbating the crisis.
In conclusion, Burhan’s strong stance against negotiations with the RSF reflects the ongoing military conflict in Sudan, which has resulted in significant casualties and displacement. The call for humanitarian intervention is urgent as the situation continues to worsen, impacting millions across the country.
