Sudan Army Plans New Government Amid Ongoing Conflict

Sudan's political landscape is shifting as the Sudanese military, led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, plans to form a new 'wartime government' following recent territorial gains against the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Khartoum. Burhan announced intentions for a technocratic government to be established after completing military objectives, dismissing negotiations with the RSF. Meanwhile, the largest civilian coalition, Taqadum, has split into two factions over disagreements on forming a government in RSF-controlled areas, reflecting deepening divisions within Sudanese politics. The army's recent advances have allowed it to reclaim significant areas in Khartoum, prompting calls for international support in establishing a transitional government. The conflict has displaced over 12 million people and left many in urgent need of humanitarian assistance. As the military consolidates power, the possibility of a civilian administration appears increasingly tenuous, with the army seeking to eliminate RSF influence in governance.
