Sudan’s army chief visits recaptured HQ, vows to ‘eradicate’ RSF

Al Jazeera  

Sudan’s army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has visited the military’s headquarters in the capital Khartoum in his first appearance there since government forces claimed to have broken a months-long siege by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Accompanied by top military officials on Sunday, al-Burhan praised the “resilience and sacrifices” of soldiers who defended the army’s General Command for 20 months, vowing to “eradicate” the RSF and pursue its fighters “in every corner of Sudan”. “Our forces are in their best condition,” al-Burhan said at the headquarters that was recaptured last week after being encircled by RSF since the start of the war in April 2023. General al-Burhan appears to opt for a military victory right now, especially since in the past few weeks the army has been able to regain control of more territory.” Attack on hospital ‘packed with patients’ The appearance comes as the head of the World Health Organization decried an attack that killed dozens of people at a hospital in el-Fasher in the Darfur region. “What the RSF and its allies want is to fully take over Darfur in order to establish a government, leaving Sudan with a model similar to what happened in Libya.” Eltayeb also expressed concern about a pattern of attacks by the RSF since January 15 that have targeted water dams, power stations and oil refineries.
