“Sudan’s army is edging closer to recapturing the country’s capital Khartoum in what allies of its leader General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan said would be their most significant victory in two years of brutal civil war. The army claimed to have recaptured nearly all of Khartoum North, across the Blue Nile river from the city centre, during intense fighting with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) of commander Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemeti. A former military officer in touch with units on the ground said that Sudanese Armed Forces were now within 2km of the presidential palace, with RSF resistance concentrated in the partially destroyed city centre in the south.” (02/11/25)
