Sudanese army lost control of the encircled 22nd Division HQ in Babanusa, W. Kordofan
2025-12-04

Text:

In Sudan 🇸🇩, the army suffered yet another defeat after losing control of the headquarters of the encircled 22nd Division in Babanusa.
Babanusa is a town in West Kordofan
After losing El Fasher a month ago, the SAF have now lost the last encirled city in the western part of the country. The counter-offensive failed as of now and the Rapid Support Forces received massive support from the United Arab Emirates, including air-defense and armoured vehicles, allowing them, despite being less numerous, to win battles.

The RSF may now move to the remaining encircled bases in Central Sudan, such as the Heghlig oilfields (but won't be the easiest to attack because it is controlled by China) or Dilling and Kadugli, encircled in the Nuba mountains. The situation overall is bad for Khartoum/Port Sudan, while Nyala/El Fasher is consolidating it's territory...
