...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 Air Force intensified its air sorties south of Khartoum, while the intensity of artillery shelling between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) increased in several areas of Khartoum, resulting in casualties and injuries.
Military aircraft bombed RSF positions in the vicinity of the Sports City, south of Khartoum, on Thursday evening, and in the area south of the belt, which includes the al-Azhari and Mayo neighbourhoods.
Eyewitnesses reported seeing flames rising from multiple locations south and west of the Sports City, and RSF soldiers were seen quickly evacuating the area.
Military aircraft also bombed RSF sites in the al-Manshiya neighbourhood, east of Khartoum, near the al-Manshiya Bridge linking Khartoum and the East Nile locality.
The escalation of fighting in Khartoum comes after the RSF seized control of the Jabal Aulia area, despite the destruction of the bridge that serves as a critical supply route from western Sudan.
Simultaneously, the RSF are mobilizing in Darfur, preparing to launch an attack on the North Darfur capital El Fasher, while armed movements aligned with the Sudanese army are massing tribal fighters to counter any foreseen assaults.
