SAF its extremist mercenary groups, and its allied terrorist

The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), its extremist mercenary groups, and its allied terrorist militias linked to the former regime continue to deliberately bombard the city of El Fasher. Their heinous crimes and indiscriminate air bombings have resulted in the daily deaths of numerous innocent civilians, including women and children, the displacement of thousands of citizens, and the extensive destruction of both public infrastructure and private property.

Meanwhile, Minni Arko Minawi, a hateful mercenary fomenting discord and ruin across Darfur, delivered today a disoriented and deceitful speech. In a desperate bid to distort the truth and play the victim, he shamelessly called upon the people of Darfur to defend the interests of the oppressive former regime that terrorized the Sudanese people for more than three decades, especially in Darfur, while transforming our country into a hub of terrorism.

The people of Darfur know well that this war was instigated by the former regime and its coconspirators within the SAF in a ruthless attempt to regain power in Sudan. These dangerous jihadists seek to leverage every vicious tool at their disposal, including sensitive tribal and social differences, to escalate this conflict, turning a blind eye to the grave human cost. Minni Arko Minawi alone is responsible for tremendous human suffering throughout our country after having declared false neutrality while fighting alongside the terror-driven former regime, which seeks to benefit from this betrayal.

Minni Arko Minawi's false claims that the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) aims to divide Sudan and establish El Fasher as the capital of a new state are both ludicrous and unequivocally rejected. Our forces maintain control over the capital, reenforce rule of law, and are dedicated to the unity of Sudan. His statements are intended to mislead the people of Darfur, who oppose the destructive regime that has subjected them to aggression and tyranny.

Minni Arko Minawi and his associates are fully aware of their precarious position and the consequences that they will face for their actions.

The RSF is shutting down all avenues for their maneuvering and deception. We are resolute in our mission to restore the rights of the people and rebuild Sudan on the foundations of justice, democracy, peace, and stability.
