Fierce clashes erupt between Sudanese army and RSF in Khartoum North
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Intense battles erupted on Friday between the Sudan
...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 and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in various parts of Khartoum North (Bahri) and Omdurman, marking a significant escalation of military operations in the capital.

In the early morning hours, large contingents of Sudanese army forces crossed the "Halfaya" bridge, connecting Omdurman and Khartoum Bahri, and penetrated deep into Khartoum North after destroying RSF positions on the bridge’s eastern side.

In a statement, Sudanese army spokesperson Nabil Abdallah said, "The armed forces carried out a successful special operation at dawn today, destroying a large number of enemy vehicles and causing numerous casualties among the leaders and members of the Daglo’s militia. Our forces also managed to penetrate deep into enemy territory in Khartoum North and Halfaya."

Abdallah reported that seven army soldiers were killed and 28 maimed.

The spokesperson did not specify the objective of the attack or why the attacking forces withdrew without retaining control of the areas they had captured, particularly the eastern bank of the bridge in Bahri City.

However,
there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened...
military sources indicated that the operation aimed to deliver critical supplies to forces stationed at the Signal Corps headquarters in Bahri, where the RSF controls most parts.

Meanwhile,
...back at the shootout, Butch shot Black Bart's knife out of his hand......
RSF spokesperson al-Fateh Qureshi announced that RSF forces in Khartoum North succeeded in shooting down an army helicopter on Friday.

He added that the downing of the military aircraft was part of battles in which the RSF completely repelled the enemy after they attempted to infiltrate Khartoum North, inflicting heavy losses in lives and equipment.
