Sudanese army launches airstrikes on Rapid Support Forces in Kordofan
Sudanese military jets struck Rapid Support Forces positions in Al-Farshaya, South Kordofan, on Wednesday, inflicting heavy losses, according to officials.
On Wednesday, Sudanese military aircraft carried out airstrikes against Rapid Support Forces (RSF) units stationed in Al-Farshaya, South Kordofan, resulting in substantial casualties, according to official statements. The Sudanese army's warplanes targeted the RSF gathering in Al-Farshaya, causing significant damage among RSF fighters.
The Special Operations Forces spokesperson in West Kordofan reported that the strikes obliterated over 250 military vehicles, with hundreds of RSF members, including foreign fighters, killed in the operation. Notably, the targeted RSF force had recently arrived from a base in a neighboring country, underscoring the strategic importance of the operation.
Simultaneously, in a separate incident, the Sudanese Armed Forces successfully repelled an assault by the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) on the Al-Damera area, located near Al-Abbasiya city, following intense clashes that began at midnight. This development unfolds against a backdrop of heightened military activity in the West Kordofan region, which has become crucial due to the significance of the export route as a vital corridor in the area. Competing factions are vying for control over key supply and movement routes in the region.
