Sudanese troops entered Sodari in North Kordofan on Friday, launching operations to pursue Rapid Support Forces who withdrew from the city, military sources said.
On Friday, Sudanese military forces entered the city of Sodari in North Kordofan, according to military sources quoted by Al Arabiya/Al Hadath. The objective was to pursue Rapid Support Forces (RSF) who had withdrawn from the city. The Sudanese army had previously recaptured the Al-Jamama area northeast of Sodari on September 19, following clashes with RSF.
The army had also conducted subsequent sweeps and pursued RSF elements towards the Darfur border. In addition to Sodari, the army had regained control of 11 areas in North Kordofan, targeting RSF positions in the region through ground operations, drone strikes, and redeployments along the Kordofan frontlines. Sodari, situated near the border with North Darfur and the Northern State, has been a focal point of intense military activity in recent days.
RSF forces were reportedly still present within the city when the Sudanese army's advance began. Military sources confirm that the army's operations continue after its entry into Sodari, with a focus on apprehending RSF elements who had left the city, while ongoing military activities persist along North Kordofan's frontlines.
