Devastation Spreads as the Violence in Sudan Escalates
In late September, fresh combat erupted in the nation’s capital when the Sudanese military began an operation to seize areas of the city under the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, or RSF,’s control.
The damaged roadways of Bahri city, north of Khartoum, were traversed by Sudanese soldiers in pickup vehicles, according to AP film taken immediately after the incident. After being under RSF control, Halfaya Bridge was reopened.
About 70 kilometres north of the capital, in al-Jaili, the army and its allies are reportedly trying to take control of the Khartoum oil refinery.
El-Fasher, the capital of the state of North Darfur, and Jebel Moya in southeast Sudan are two other important battlegrounds.
As the rainy season comes to an end, fighting is predicted to get more intense.
Last week, the commander of Sudan’s military told the UN General Assembly that the militias engaged in combat in his nation need to stop using their weapons.
Since the middle of April last year, Sudan has been embroiled in a bloody battle.
Since early September, fighting in the Khartoum region has killed at least 78 people, according to a spokesman for the U.N. human rights office in Geneva.
