Sudanese Army Breaks RSF Siege on Key Southern City
The Sudanese army claims to have broken a nearly two-year siege by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces on el-Obeid, a key southern state capital. BBC Africa has it that this development follows the RSF’s signing of a political charter in Nairobi to establish a breakaway government in its controlled areas. The conflict, ongoing since April 2023, has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions.
