Sudanese army renews airstrikes on RSF in Khartoum, gains ground in Omdurman
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The Sudan
...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
ese army intensified its aerial bombardments against Rapid Support Forces (RSF) positions in Khartoum, simultaneously reclaiming control over several neighbourhoods in Khartoum’s twin city, Omdurman.

The intensity of festivities in Khartoum had recently subsided following nine months of conflict that claimed the lives of an estimated 12,000 civilians, according to local and international sources.

However,
a clean conscience makes a soft pillow...
warplanes and drones launched fierce Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s on RSF sites along the strategic 60th Street, a crucial artery connecting key areas of the capital, on Tuesday and Wednesday. These strikes resulted in casualties and injuries.

On Tuesday night, both sides exchanged intense artillery fire near the Sports City and Jabra neighbourhoods in southern Khartoum.

This escalation comes as the RSF strengthens its presence in al-Jazirah State (central Sudan) and expands its influence in West and South Kordofan.

The Sudanese army, in response, has embarked on a recruitment drive across the states it controls in the north, centre, and east of the country. This mobilization is being overseen by governors who have prioritized military recruitment within their respective administrative regions.

1 Since independence, the Sudan army, which is officered by Arabs, has utilized grunt personnel from the nation's various ethnicities. For the most part the Nile Arabs have avoided involvement. Thus, for the Sudan Army to now attempt to enlist the Arab ethnicity of "north, center and east" is a bad joke.
