Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 23762, member: 2262"] Army Breaks Siege in Khartoum, Claims Victory. The Sudanese army said it broke a siege by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on its command center in Khartoum on Friday. The army called this a major victory in the capital city. The two sides have been at war for nearly two years. The RSF denied the army's claims, calling them "propaganda" meant to boost morale. The RSF accused the army of using fake videos to spread lies. Reuters could not confirm either side's statements. The war began in April 2023. It started because of disagreements over integrating the two forces. Tens of thousands have died in the fighting. Millions have fled their homes. Half the population faces hunger. The army said it broke the siege of its large Signal Corps camp in Khartoum Bahri. Troops then crossed the Nile River. They joined forces in central Khartoum, which had also been under siege. If true, this would be a significant advance by the army in the capital. The RSF has had a strong presence there. It has tightly surrounded key army sites. Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan visited troops north of Bahri. The army says it took control of Sudan's main oil refinery there. However, the RSF said its forces caused major losses to the army in many areas. It said the army's claims fit a pattern of misinformation. Heavy fighting also broke out in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur. Joint Sudanese forces, including the army, clashed with the RSF. The joint forces said they stopped an RSF attack. The RSF has not commented. The joint forces said the United Arab Emirates aided the RSF. The UAE denied this. It said it only provides humanitarian help in Sudan. An advisor to the RSF leader resigned on Friday. Ayoub Nahar said he quit because the RSF targeted civilians in several states. [MEDIA=youtube]EOHsBNn3hwM[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
