Armoured Corps Links with Sudanese forces in HQ, squeezing RSF in Khartoum - Sudan Tribune
[SUDANTRIBUNE] 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 said on Monday its Armoured Corps had linked up with forces at the army's General Command headquarters in Khartoum, effectively ending the presence of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in a key part of the complex.

Since early Sunday, the Armoured Corps launched a major military operation, pushing north and east and taking control of large parts of Khartoum 2 and 3 neighbourhoods, the strategically important al-Musallamiya Bridge, and El Nilein Towers, which the RSF had used as sniper positions, according to the army.

Army front man Nabil Abdallah said in a statement: ''Today, the knights of the Armoured Corps joined the steadfast heroes at the General Command after cleansing the People's Teaching Hospital of the rabble of the Daglo family militia.''

Video clips circulated on pro-army platforms showed soldiers arriving from southern Khartoum meeting with troops stationed at the main army headquarters east of the capital.

In a strategic manoeuvre following the September 26th Omdurman bridge crossing, the Sudanese Army deceived the Rapid Support Forces into massing its fighters in the al-Mogran area while simultaneously launching an armoured advance from southern Khartoum towards the General Command.

The link-up will allow military reinforcements to reach the General Command and facilitate a southward push to clear remaining RSF pockets in southern Khartoum, including the Yarmouk Military Complex, the Central Reserve camp, and the Tayba camp, extending to Jebel Aulia, the army said. It could also open a path toward the airport.

The Armoured Corps' arrival at the General Command tightens the army's control around the Republican Palace, the Strategy base, and other key sites in central Khartoum that remain under RSF control.
