Sudanese army is a national institution, not tied to any group, says Burhan

Sudan's Sovereign Council Chairman Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has declared that the Sudanese army is a national institution, not affiliated with any tribe or faction. In an interview reported by Ajel English, Burhan rejected the notion of a partial peace deal, emphasizing that the army is dedicated to fully cleansing the country of terrorist militias.

He indicated that the status of fighters could be discussed, with the potential for integrating those not involved in criminal activities into the regular armed forces. Burhan urged all Sudanese citizens to return to their homeland, while expressing openness to serious peace initiatives. However, he firmly stated that he would not accept a peace deal that would allow the Rapid Support Forces, led by General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemeti), and their supporters to regain power.

The Sudanese army has recently made significant advances, taking control of central, eastern, and northern regions of the country, pushing the Rapid Support Forces westward and securing key highways.
