Sudanese Army Launches Major Offensive Against RSF Amid Ongoing Civil War

today27 September, 2024

Background
 

The Sudanese army has initiated a significant offensive against the Rapid Support Forces in the capital, Khartoum, as it attempts to reclaim lost territory since the conflict began in April 2023. BBC Africa has it that government forces conducted dawn strikes on RSF bases in Khartoum and Bahri. The ongoing civil war has led to approximately 150,000 deaths and displaced over 10 million people, contributing to what the UN describes as one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world.
