KHARTOUM, Sudan
Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have declared the capture of a new town and military base in Gezira state, marking a significant advancement for the paramilitary group.
In a recent announcement on
social media platform X, the RSF claimed to have "liberated the second
infantry division" of the Sudanese armed forces in al-Hasaheisa town. This
comes just two days after the RSF seized the state's capital, Wad Madani,
following intense clashes with the rival Sudanese regular army.
The Preliminary Committee of
Sudan Doctors’ Union reported a staggering toll of 300 people killed and tens
of others wounded during the fierce military confrontations in Wad Madani city.
The United Nations agency
International Organisation for Migration (IOM) estimates that around 300,000
people have fled Wad Madani since the clashes began last week, highlighting the
humanitarian impact of the conflict.
The strategic control of
Gezira state, situated to the south of Khartoum, positions the RSF to make
further advances toward army-controlled states in the east, central, and
southeast, according to analysts.
The situation continues to
unfold as the RSF extends its influence, raising concerns about the escalating
tensions in the region.
