Sudanese Army Claims Control of Presidential Palace Amid Ongoing Conflict

The Sudanese army has claimed a significant victory in the ongoing conflict with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) by seizing control of the Presidential Palace in Khartoum. This power struggle, which intensified after the ousting of President Omar al-Bashir in 2019, has led to severe humanitarian crises, including famine and mass displacement of civilians. The conflict is marked by accusations of war crimes from both factions, with international sanctions imposed on their leaders for exacerbating the situation. While the army, led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, receives external support, the RSF, under General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, employs diverse tactics and backing. As both sides remain entrenched in their positions, the United Nations has labeled this conflict as the world's largest humanitarian crisis, with no peace negotiations currently in sight. The situation continues to deteriorate, with civilians bearing the brunt of the violence and instability.
