Fierce fighting erupts between Sudan’s army and RSF paramilitary group, wider conflict feared
CA, 15 Apr 2023
Fierce fighting erupted Saturday in Sudan’s capital of Khartoum between the military and the country’s powerful Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group, raising fears of a wider conflict in the country.
The RSF, which accused the army of attacking them first, claims they have seized the airports in the northern city of Merowe and in El-Obeid in the west, and the country's presidential palace.
The hostilities followed days of tension between the army and the RSF, which could undermine long-running efforts to return Sudan to civilian rule after power struggles and military coups.
