| [SUDANTRIBUNE] Lt Gen Shams al-Din Kabbashi, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, reaffirmed the unwavering support of Sudan’s military leadership for Commander-in-Chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, amidst ongoing challenges in the country. During his visit to army sites in Khartoum on Friday, Kabbashi highlighted the presence of foreign mercenaries, saying, "We do not fight the RSF elements". He referred to Chadian fighters from Arab tribes who recently joined the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). He emphasized the commitment of the armed forces to remain unified under the leadership of al-Burhan, who effectively manages the battles alongside the military leadership, as he said. Kabbashi also called for "disregarding false news and rumours propagated by rebels through the media", adding that there are false reports in the social media that the army leadership decided to dismiss al-Burhan.. He expressed concerns regarding the human rights ...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty... violations and war crimes committed by paramilitary forces, citing theft, looting, and sabotage of vital facilities and the occupation of civilian homes and hospitals. Recently, infantry forces from the White Nile and Blue Nile regions have arrived in Khartoum to participate in the ongoing battles. These forces have successfully gained control over several neighbourhoods. However, women are made to be loved, not understood... the recent fire outbreak in the gas depots in southern Khartoum and the subsequent attack on the munitions factory by the RSF fighters have raised questions among retired officers regarding the strategy employed by al-Burhan to fight the RSF, which heavily relies on the use of the air force and artillery. |
