“We would hand him (Al-Burhan) over to to justice or he must die like a dog” – Lt. Gen Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo aka Hemeti
“The Rapid Support Forces control 90% of the military areas in Sudan.
– I am speaking in front of the General Command of the Armed Forces and my forces are inside it.
– Al-Burhan hides under the ground and pushes people’s children to fight.
The Inspector General and a number of officers joined the Rapid Support Forces.
– Those who are fighting the RSF now are the Mujahideen and the militias of the Islamic Movement, not the army.
– El Geneina airport was seized, and the commander of the 16th Division, Nyala, voluntarily surrendered.
– We salute the commander of the 16th Division, Nyala, as he is a sane and patriotic person and declared his support for the people’s choice.
– Our message to our Egyptian brothers is to keep your children safe and secure, and we are ready to hand them over to the Egyptian government.
The Egyptian battalion is not considered an enemy and surrendered without resistance.
– What happened is a price for democracy, and we made a pledge to ourselves that power belongs to the people.
– We were forced to confront and we cannot surrender.
Rumors about officers from the Rapid Support Forces joining the army are baseless.
– We have a large stock of weapons and ammunition, and we have received more than 200 armored vehicles” (Rapid Support Forces, 15.04.2023).
Today, the full fledge war between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) came into full effect. The results are all across Sudan. To get verified information is nearly hopeless. While both parties claims victories and that it has overtaken vital bases, positions and military installations. As well, as bounties of weapons, ammunitions and vehicles for that matter.
This isn’t a battle for democracy or for a civilian transition. No, this is to conquer and be the Head of State. It is a battle between Al-Burhan and Hemeti. These two are now fighting to stay ahead. This is the third coup d’etat Hemeti is participating and leading in. His RSF has been vital and important in the previous ones. Now it is ordered to overthrow the current regime.
That’s why the brutality and the civilian casualties will rise. The RSF has already massacres civilians for decades. They have killed and silenced dissidents. It was a tool of the Al-Bashir era and now it’s ordered to finish off the National Army. That’s because of the distrust between the Chairman and the Vice-Chairman of the Transitional Sovereign Council.
The game is the game and this one is rigged. It is military commanders and the relics of the tyranny of Al-Bashir that is wrecking havoc on the Republic. Men who has been the warlords and henchmen of the brutal dictatorship of the past. These men who has won honours and privileges by doing so. They have earned currency and titles by serving with viciousness. Instead of doing it on unarmed civilians. They are now pointing the guns against themselves. Not to further the transition or civilian government. No, this is done to become the Head of State and take power. This is a struggle to conquer and rule supreme.
That’s why this is so bloody and will be so sinister. Everything is on the table and quickly the situation can go from being friendly to deadly. Former brothers-in-arms are squaring off against each other and calling each other “illegitimate”. Only doing so to silence and get the throne. Here is Al-Burhan trying to keep his office and Hemeti fighting to take him down. The ones who has taken down Al-Bashir, demoted Hamdok and stopped the transition. Now the same gentlemen are in a huge sword fight to win the crown. This is a bloody battle and everything is on the line. If Hemeti looses, he has lost it all. If Al-Burhan looses, he has lost it all. That’s the game here and this is why none of these men will back down. They have already fired the guns and now the bullets has to be accounted for. Peace.
