 ...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...
’s Army Commander-in-Chief, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, refuted allegations of a recent meeting with Sudanese Army Secretary-General Ali Karti, emphasizing that he had only encountered Karti once in his lifetime.
On Thursday, Sudan Tribune released a report claiming a gathering had taken place between al-Burhan and leaders from the Islamic Movement.

The purpose of the meeting was reported to be a discussion regarding the state of affairs in Sudan, particularly given the extensive involvement of these leaders in the struggle against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and their efforts to mobilize youth across the nation.
This report provoked a strong reaction from the Sovereign Council, which issued a vehement statement condemning the news outlet. The army’s leadership has been grappling with allegations of links to the Moslem Brüderbund. This Islamist organization is met with rejection both within Sudan and among the region’s countries.
The release of this report coincided with Washington’s imposition of sanctions on Ali Karti, a move seen as confirmation of reports suggesting that Islamists were instigating and sustaining the conflict to obstruct Sudan’s transition to democracy and secure their return to power.
Speaking to artillery soldiers in Atbara of the River Nile state on Saturday, al-Burhan vehemently denied any encounter with a delegation of Islamic leaders led by Ali Karti. However,

he added that the army welcomed anyone willing to join its ranks in the battle against the RSF.
"I met Karti once in my life in China, where I worked as a military attaché, and he visited in his capacity as Minister of Foreign Affairs," al-Burhan stated. "I have not met with any political organizations, be they Moslem Brüderbund, communist, or Baathist, nor have any army commanders engaged with or entertained them. We are all Sudanese, and anyone who wishes to fight alongside us is welcome as a soldier like any other. If they harbour ulterior motives, we will reject them without hesitation."
Al-Burhan warned those attempting to incite against the military establishment, saying they would be branded as "deceivers and manipulators" and face consequences.

ese Army and Chairman of the Sovereign Council, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, in Port Sudan to discuss options for dealing with the ongoing war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
According to sources who spoke to Sudan Tribune, the Islamist leaders urged al-Burhan to avoid any negotiated settlement to end the conflict. They pledged to supply the army with thousands of mobilized fighters, given that the organization has thrown all its weight into the war against the RSF.
The Islamist leaders also reassured al-Burhan that Ahmed Haroun, the leader of the banned National Congress Party, who is indicted by the International Criminal Court, is working hard to mobilize young people to join the army in its battles in Khartoum. They urged al-Burhan to continue fighting, saying that patience was required.
Dozens of camps have been opened to train volunteers in several states after al-Burhan’s earlier appeal. Video clips have shown leaders affiliated with the Islamic movement addressing the mobilized, urging them to join the fight.
During the war, some figures of the former regime were released from prisons in Khartoum. Reports have indicated that this group has been active in the eastern Sudan states, inciting the continuation of the war. However,

the official authorities in several states in the east have denied that these activities were carried out with their knowledge.
